About Spacetrain
Spacetrain develops an autonomous ground effect vehicle sustained by air bearing and propelled by linear motors powered by embedded graphene batteries. The engine will circulate on a reversed « T » track and will be controlled thanks to calculators and internally developed softwares. Our shuttle will circulate with an average speed of 540 km/h and a maximum speed of 720 km/h. Moreover, our startup is basing itself on a successful air bearing technology imagined by the French engineer Jean Bertin in the 1960s. Today, we rethought the initial technology, modifying all its features thanks to state-of-the-art technologies, except for the air bearing technology. Indeed, the Spacetrain will for example have an extremely strong environmental dimension thanks to the use of renewable materials and energies. We aim at participating in the expansion of studies on graphene for example that we will be a crucial material for the construction of our shuttle.
