BOSTON TEAM WIN SECOND ANNUAL NASA SPACE APPS CHALLENGE 2022 GLOBAL AWARD ADMIN DECEMBER 15, 2022
※Regional event in Boston is organized by Binnovative and supported by Consulate General of Japan in Boston
A TEAM OF BOSTON WON THE ‘ART AND TECHNOLOGY’ AWARD AT THE NASA INTERNATIONAL SPACE APPS CHALLENGE FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW.
This event, managed by the NASA Earth Science Division, is the world’s largest hackathon bringing together over 31,561 people from 323 locations and 5,327 teams around the world. The hackathon, which takes place globally in the fall and has been organized by Binnovative in Boston since 2014, was held virtually Oct 1-2 of this year (Supported by Consulate General of Japan in Boston).
Teams across the world collaborated with each other to build innovative solutions that can solve our world’s problems. The winning Boston-based team, ‘Earth, Wind and Flare’, developed an interactive tool to represent data from the Parker Solar Probe to enable us to learn more about solar effects (aka space weather).
The team’s submission, “Where you can Uncover the Invisible”, was an Internet of Things (IoT) device that publicizes space weather and its impacts on the Earth in an interactive and artistic way. They considered key elements for the device including a matrix board to display space and Earth weather, how to integrate data from multiple sources, and what visual and acoustic effects would be the most engaging. We are proud to have team ’Earth, Wind and Flare’ has been awarded ’Art & Technology Award’, one of ten such categories in the International Space Apps Challenge 2022.
