There are two hyperloop startups based in Los Angeles: one is extremely eager to publicize its progress on this futuristic, insanely fast transportation system, the other... not so much. Until now.
Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT), the more coquettish of the two startups, finally released a handful of images and a video to prove that it is building what it says is the world’s first full-scale, passenger-ready hyperloop, capable of speeds of up to 760 mph. Unfortunately, the pictures raise more questions than they answer.
Let’s see what we’ve got:
Something that appears to be the inside of a hyperloop tube.
A mechanical arm spraying water at something.
Some.... metal struts...
