Luna Innovations is a company that develops and manufactures products for the healthcare, telecommunications, energy and defense markets. It is headquartered in Roanoke, Virginia. Luna's products are used to measure, monitor, protect and improve processes. Luna's Technology Development Division concentrates in three core areas: sensors and systems (fiber optics and ultrasonics); health sciences; and advanced materials including coatings, flame retardants, and nanomaterials.

Luna Innovations was founded by an electrical engineering professor at Virginia Tech and was originally headquartered in Blacksburg, Virginia. It moved its headquarters to Roanoke in September 2006. Luna Innovations has six locations across Virginia: Blacksburg, Roanoke, Danville, Charlottesville, Hampton, and McLean. As of 2007, the company had about 220 employees including scientists, engineers, and business professionals.

Two companies developed from Luna Innovations have been sold to other companies. Luna Energy, which developed pipeline monitoring sensors for the oil and gas industry, was acquired by oil field services firm Baker Hughes. Luna i-Monitoring, which developed a suite of integrated wireless sensors for remote monitoring for the oil and gas industry, was acquired by IHS Energy.

Luna Innovations had an initial public offering in June 2006 with the NASDAQ trading symbol LUNA.
