TEAM MEMBERS
PhD Candidate
Lukas Eschment helped initiate and is now coordinating projects at the Institute of Hyperloop Technology where he is also a PhD candidate. After starting with the Hyperloop Pod Competitions and reaching out to industry partners, he is now focusing his work on an European Hyperloop Large Scale Technological Research Infrastructure. He is involved in standardization at national and European level, EU projects and Hyperloop Programs like ePIcenter, the Hyperloop Development Program and the EU HyTeC project. Today he is focussing on Hyperloop efforts on a European level forming partnerships and consortia including industry and academia with the goal of developing future transportation.
Mechanical Engineer
Marcel Stamm has been part of the team since 2022. He is responsible for the design and construction of a vehicle prototype. It will be constructed for the test track at the University of Applied Sciences Emden/Leer and provide information about the behaviour of components under application-dependent conditions. He completed his studies at the University of Applied Sciences in mechanical engineering with a specialisation in design and development.
