Hyperloop is a proposed high-speed transportation system that uses special pods traveling inside tubes. The idea was introduced in 2013 as a futuristic way to move people and cargo quickly. These pods move through low-pressure or near-vacuum tubes, which reduces air resistance. Because there is very little friction, the pods can travel at extremely high speeds. The system also uses magnetic levitation or similar technology to keep the pods floating above the track. This helps reduce wear and makes the ride smoother. Overall, Hyperloop is designed to combine the speed of planes with the efficiency of trains.
