I got the opportunity to interview Mustafa for my research studies. It is not enough words to say about him. He is a very knowledgeable and his thinking capacity is very high. He gave me so many suggestions to improve my research person. I had never seen such a humble person like him. He is very friendly for anyone. I strongly recommend anyone who is interested in learning about technology around the built environment get in touch with Mustafa.
I had the opportunity to interview Mustafa as part of my research studies. He was very welcoming yet assertive in providing rich insights and perspectives on emerging technologies in the sector. He proved knowledgeable and up-to-date with the current trends in emerging technologies in the built environment.
Mustafa was part of my dissertation research study and provided great insight into the use of technology around the built environment. I strongly recommend anyone who is interested in learning about technology around the built environment get in touch with Mustafa.
This is by far the best lecture I have seen about Digital Twins and DT in BE. Fantastic!
The close relationship with the university was exemplified by the involvement of Mustafa Al-Adhami, a PhD researcher at the University. Mustafa created an app that enabled better integration between the 3D models in Hololens and the live building site, resulting in a better, more accurate augmented reality experience for the project team.
