The primary goal of the 2U Quantum CubeSat is to test and qualify a quantum gyroscope developed by researchers at UC Berkeley in the conditions of low earth orbit. This gyroscope is an application of Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV–) centers in diamond, which is a very active and interesting area of physics research. The benefits of this sensor over traditional options is that it can be made very small while still being accurate, which is perfectly suited for a CubeSat and spacecraft in general. This CubeSat will act as a proof-of-concept experiment to demonstrate the functionality of NV– Center gyroscope technology in space.

OpenLoop is an alliance of teams at six top universities developing a single entry in this competition. Our goal is to accelerate the development of the Hyperloop and build a case for the construction of a nationwide network. - Involved in developing CAD models for the compressor/airflow team as required - Conducted prelim FEM tests on the fuselage parts designed by team to test for stress, strain and shear forces - Led Princeton team on internal load distribution of pod Learn more at : http://opnlp.co/ Featured on the telegram: http://www.thetelegram.com/Business/2016-02-26/article-4449330/A-new-mode-of-transportation/1 Featured on Business Insider http://www.businessinsider.com/spacex-hyperloop-competitions-teams-2017-1 NTV interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Or2xTiS2Kk
