A team of Windsor students may not have won any hardware, but they're not returning empty handed from the Space-X Hyperloop Pod Competition in Los Angeles.
The team compiled of University of Windsor and St. Clair College students didn't place in the final round of competition after failing to complete a number of safety checks required for the next level. Students were tasked with building a scaled down electrically propelled pod that can travel at speeds over 1,000 km/h and stop within 100-ft of the end of Space-X's vacuum test track.
