The 14-foot-long (4.3-metre) vehicle was shown to hover around a quarter of an inch (0.6cm) above the ground, powered by eight miniature engines.
'Our pod is light-weight, modular and scalable and can travel up to 240mph,' said Dhaval Shiyani, Founder, Team Captain and Chief engineer at Hyperloop UC

'It features a dual redundant braking system with magnetic and friction brakes along with a dual redundant levitation system through magnetic levitation and wheels'.
'The levitation system works through strong magnetic arrays arranged in a circular pattern which, when rotated at high speeds, produce a lift force capable of levitating our entire 300kg system'.
Tesla and SpaceX boss Elon Musk first unveiled his Hyperloop concept in 2012 and subsequently challenged the world to submit prototype ideas for the tube-based passenger system that would allow travel between cities at the speed of sound.
The selected prototypes will be tested between 27 and 29 January on a mile-long test track next to SpaceX's HQ in Hawthorne, California.
A render showing what the finalised Hyperloop UC pod will look like.
