Forge Hyperloop
One engineer. One mission.
Building the next generation of hyperloop systems.
Engineering the future
of ground transport.
Forge Hyperloop is an independent engineering project focused on designing and testing competitive hyperloop technology. I build real hardware, run real simulations, and compete at international events.
Hyperloop is a proposed mode of passenger and cargo transport in which pods travel through a near-vacuum tube at speeds exceeding 1,000 km/h. I am working to make it real.
My work spans mechanical engineering, electrical systems, software, and aerodynamics, driven by a single mission: build a pod that competes.
