The University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST) has announced the signing of a technology support contract with “Be My Sense”, a startup founded by UDST students and launched through the university’s incubation centre, UHUB. The agreement marks a significant step in supporting student-led innovation and advancing entrepreneurial initiatives emerging from the university. “Be My Sense” was developed by students Mohamed Ali and Ahmed El Abed, under the mentorship of Dr Wagdi Alrawagfeh, the assistant dean for IT Student Affairs at the College of Computing and Information Technology. The startup builds on an award-winning project that earned international recognition at the Huawei ICT Competition 2024-25 Global Final in China, where the team secured second place in the Innovation Track while representing Qatar among leading teams from around the world. The solution is an inclusive, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered platform designed to empower deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals through real-time translation, smart wearables, and digital assistance.
