In my senior year, I worked as part of a 4 person team to develop a Lunar Lander simulator using C++ and Unreal Engine 5. We 3D printed dual joysticks to control the Lunar Lander as it descended. My primary responsibility was to take the C++ code which contained all the inputs for the joysticks and how it would affect the actual attitude control of the spacecraft, and to implement it to Unreal Engine to provide a visual model for the simulation.

Please note, I did not create the model for the lunar lander
