Time and distance overcome.

With their twice-as-fast aviation technology, Boom aims to enable same-day round trips for distant meetings, allow global leaders to address crises in person, and unlock new opportunities for human connection.

Innovative software to support innovative hardware.

Boom’s visionary hardware—their aircraft—requires custom software to run. We helped Boom develop the onboard fuel system calculations for their XB-1 jet and also implemented key features for their flight simulation testing program.

Ensuring the safety of everyone onboard.

Boom’s fuel reporting system needs to precisely display remaining levels so that pilots can make informed safety decisions. We helped write the onboard fuel system calculations, added a multi-tiered warning system, and reworked the associated unit testing.

Fixing flight simulation errors to give test pilots an accurate feel.

Boom’s existing simulation had significant errors that led to an inauthentic flight experience for test pilots. We worked with Boom’s mechanical modeling team to build an accurate representation of the aircraft and seamlessly integrate it with their custom physics engine.

Project Details

A new era of travel.

Boom is working to make the world dramatically more accessible. We’re excited to have helped further their mission to break down distance barriers and bring people together.
