Great Success for Swissloop in Edinburgh

September 5, 2023
The ETH Zurich student project won 5 out of 10 prizes including the prestigious "Complete Systems Award" for their overall system.

Swissloop was one of 20 teams that sent their concepts and prototypes into the European Hyperloop Week race. Their laboratory and workshop are located in the Innovation Park in Dübendorf. Swissloop offers students the opportunity to gain practical experience during their studies. This year, ETH mechanical engineering student Louis Chambre was jointly responsible for the construction of the pod as Operations Lead. Electrical engineering student Lina De Windt was as Focusstudent responsible for the power electronics.

For the next edition of the European Hyperloop Week, which will take place from 15-21 July 2024 in Zurich, ETH electrical engineering student Lina De Windt will lead the team and Louis Chambre will be Executive Director of the EHW.
