Building digital twins of oil terminals, refineries, and even nuclear power plants sounds futuristic, but that’s exactly what HyBird is doing. Using laser scanning, video, and photogrammetry, they create ultra-realistic 3D models to transform how these facilities handle maintenance, inspections, and operations. Ahmed Hadid shares how he and his co-founder Mo turned a university project into a full-blown maintenance management solution, all while navigating the chaos of early COVID days and running lean as a startup.
