Abstract:
    It is based on acceleration of projectile by using electromagnetic forces. Power will be given by capacitor bank. Material selection and current control are basic tasks. There is also instrumentation part of speed of projectile measurement and temperature measurement.
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ?
    By applying principles of electromagnetism, high speed transportation services can be provided and space industry will be improved.
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ?
   Pakistan needs it for its transportation and space industry.
How will the solution works
    Current carrying conductor when placed in electromagnetic field causes the force acting on projectile. Projectile will be made up of conductor material. Speed measurement will occur through chronograph. It will be made by using Arduino and some other sensors. Rails carrying current are made by copper, projectile is of Aluminum, barrel will be made up by garolite and wood.
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different
    It is a new technology made only by USA and China. Pakistan is making it in competition with india.
