Although Hyperloop technology is still in its early stages, its technical and economic potential will become a revolution in the transport industry in Europe that will serve to unify it.
The development of Hyperloop technology should focus on improving propulsion technology issues and keep an eye on the human and perceptual aspects during the traveling, which could be a key factor when engineers develop the passenger cabins and implement advanced prototypes to market.
Regarding the user experience will serve in the future to create and develop an interior design for the Hyperloop cabin that adapts to the sensory stimulation features and practical needs of the user during the journey. The synergy between the Hyperloop technology and the traveler experience will help as a bridge for the citizens of the future who use this new type of transport with confidence.
The article aims to analyze the most critical aspects used to evaluate future transport through user experience methodologies. That should be considered a fundamental part of the interior space design of the cabin through common areas and specific services.
It describes two essential aspects in the design of future Hyperloop cabins or pods. On the one hand, the user experience methodologies related to the perception of comfort and safety in this new transport allow evaluation of the expectations in its use in the future. On the other hand, the description of the cognitive factors that influence the interior cabins' design affects the development of future devices such as passengers' seats in the pod.
