Automated small body lander simulation utilizing a real world guidance system with optical feature tracking. Developed in C++ using Vulkan rendering API and Bullet physics API to simulate the domain, and the landers onboard camera. Rotation estimation is performed by feature tracking between 2 images with homography decomposition to determine rotational velocity. This estimation is used by a guidance navigation controller (GNC) to determine the expected future landing site position. The GNC is implemented with a ZEM ZEV based acceleration algorithm for thrust control.
