transportiga
Transportiga is a proposed system for the rapid transit of goods and people, envisioned as a network of pneumatic tubes. The core concept involves propelling capsules or "pods" through a sealed tube system using air pressure differentials. These tubes could be laid underground, above ground, or even underwater, connecting various locations such as cities, industrial sites, or distribution centers.
The theoretical advantages of transportiga include high speeds, as the pods would experience minimal friction. The
While the concept has been explored for decades, widespread implementation has faced significant technical and economic
