• Developing a program with few high level "layers", with my scripting interacting directly with the PS5 hardware.
• Understanding industry level documentation detailing the workings of a modern commerical console.
• Developing tools which take advantage of technology that is unique to the PS5.

• I programmed different responses on the PS5 controllers light bar based on the users inputs.
• I created custom .gnf files that the PS5 could render and repostion during runtime.
• I programmed a method of sending functions to alternate threads for efficient code execution.

• I got hands on experience with hardware programming on a modern console, and I now have a better understanding of what that means.
• I have a better understanding of how multithreading works, how to use it and when it should be used.
• I got some experience with performance profiling, and how to better understand profiling software.

For a university project, I used a PS5 demo kit to create a small demonstration of what makes the console unique. Specifically, I explored the PS5's multithreading capabilities by using the consoles many cores. Specifically, I attempted to discover how multithreading could help when rendering a large number of images at once. Additionally, I want to include the unique features of the PS5 controller as minor mechanics.

Due to an NDA, I cannot expand on some aspects of this project in great detail, but I will still attempt to record my development in some fashion.
