There are many reasons for humans’ search for alternative modes of transportation across the globe and in the USA specifically, including (but not limited to) the following: as population densities continue to increase, traffic conditions continue to deteriorate with the existing infrastructure; a societal shift toward adoption of new methods utilizing green energy demands development of efficient modes of transportation utilizing renewable energy; we need to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels; and the logistical obstacles of airlines’ long security checking lines create enormous inconvenience for air travelers. All of these issues point toward the need for an intelligent, comfortable, and autonomous means of transport; that is people’s impression of the transport of tomorrow. That automobile will drive us into the future one vision of a new mode of transportation seems promising. A hyperloop is a train capable of reaching the speed of sound. While many people are skeptical about this concept, researchers and entrepreneurs from all over the world are working on making the hyperloop a reality. This chapter describes a study with the goal of developing a technology roadmap for a hyperloop company, in order to prioritize items on the basis of an expert panel’s judgment. With use of multielement tables, the team was able to shape a final hyperloop roadmap for the next 20 years. This roadmap is divided into 5-year intervals on the basis of the importance, feasibility, and availability of the necessary technologies.
