Unreal Engine provides a useful iPad-based tool called Unreal Stage, which allows operators to link environment properties and control them from an iPad interface.

However, in some production situations, touchscreen control is not precise enough, especially when making detailed lighting and color adjustments in real time.

To solve this, we integrated a Tangent Panel into our workflow. The high-precision knobs, buttons, and trackballs allowed operators to adjust environment parameters more accurately and responsively during production.

My work focused on integrating the Tangent Panel control input with Unreal Engine environment parameters, creating a more precise and tactile workflow for real-time lighting and color adjustments.
