As a part of a leading company specializing in the digital transformation of oil and gas power plants in Egypt, my responsibility as part of the team was to develop the back-end and front-end of an electronic document management system specialized in document archiving and management using the famous Unity game engine running on .NET framework and C# as the back-end scripting as well as the 3D simulation of Nasr Petroleum Company power plant. As a result of the project, newly added members can explore the plant as a 3D model for training and education purposes, move around the plant and investigate all the pipelines, equipment, and valves, access their documents, or read its datasheet throughout the interactive 3D model. The project mainly facilitates the handling of Plant documentation by linking all plant equipment to documents, and by creating detailed reports for current and old revisions of documents.Carrying out the company’s vision in the sector of oil and gas as a partner for AspenTech in the Middle East, our job was to integrate AspenTech scheduling software alongside multiple SOA-enabled or other legacy systems across 7 refineries in one integrated enterprise-based environment securing seamless data exchange between all systems. My role involved meeting with the client and gathering all the required information, studying high-level functional and non-functional requirements related to performance, security, and reliability as well as building the software architecture diagrams, delivering the design document, selecting a technology stack, and deployment methods, and estimating development time.

Implemented a Windows application written in C# and WindowsForms to control the surveillance system consisting of radar, a day camera, and a thermal camera deployed along the seashore. A Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL) database was used to store all of the XML information sent to and from the radar, while an OPEN-GL 3D GIS map was developed using JAVA based on NASA WorldWind SDK to plot the data. Object detection and tracking APIs were also included in the application, which used the live video feed of the day and thermal cameras to detect and track targets. Furthermore, these APIs were also responsible for sending control commands to the Pan/Tilt Platform on which the cameras were mounted in order to direct the system towards the locked moving target.Using Unity3D and C#, I developed a training simulator that simulates real-life places, environments, effects, and weather conditions to help military personnel perform challenging and realistic training. A Python program was developed to capture the exact coordinates of a laser pointer attached to the front part of the weapon model using OpenCV. The points captured were then sent using the TCP-IP communication protocol to the Unity3D simulator. Using Unity3D, the bullet is instantiated into the scene, and the ballistic equations and physics are applied to mimic the behavior of a real bullet, as well as the wind effect and weather conditions to ensure that the simulation is as realistic as possible. The Chief of Staff of the Egyptian Armed Forces acknowledged the importance of this project and asked it to be implemented across all the training units of the Armed Forces to improve aiming skills and to save ammo and lives.
