What started as Elon Musk's wild dream of a sort-of-Jetsons-style tube for high speed commuting is becoming a reality in at least one country. Now SpaceX posted a 360-degree video of its own Hyperloop demonstration pod and tube being tested on a short track.
The video was shot during the recent Hyperloop Pod Competition launched to showcase viable designs for Hyperloop systems. The virtual reality device-friendly video gives us our closest look yet at what it might really be like to ride in a Hyperloop pod.
SpaceX is promoting the video as a VR experience and it can be viewed for free on YouTube using Google Chrome or via the Jaunt VR app, which supports the Samsung Gear VR, Google Daydream, HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. The company plans to launch a second competition this summer.
