The Luminosity Lab is a student-led research and development think tank located on the Tempe campus of Arizona State University.
Overview
The Luminosity Lab was founded in 2016 by Dr. Mark Naufel, who was tasked with the project by President of Arizona State University, Michael Crow.[1][2] Fifteen students from multiple disciplines were selected for the initial team.[1]
Notable Projects
NASA
A team of students from the Luminosity Lab were finalists in NASA's 2020 BIG Idea Challenge, a national competition to build a probe to explore the darkened regions of the Moon.[3]
A team of students from the Luminosity Lab were among 22 finalists in the Space Robotics Challenge, one of NASA's Centennial Challenges.[4][5]
X-Prize
In Summer 2020, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff partnered with CNBC's Jim Cramer and the X-Prize Foundation, an international mask design competition with an overall prize purse of $1 million.[6] A team of five students from the Luminosity Lab were the winners of the Xprize Next-gen Mask challenge, winning $500,000.[7][8] The team received national and international press coverage and recognition as a result of being named the top mask of the competition.[9][10]
