3D Roadmap Recommendations for 2024

In this episode, I am showing you my 3D Roadmap Recommendation for 2024. We are going to cover the various aspects of 3D Data Science and Processing and Learning Paths to follow to maximize our journey.

Design your 3D Roadmap to Expertise (DIY 3D)

Hand-drawn map of a learning path in 3D and AI

If you want to get a tad more toward application-first or depth-first approaches, I curated several learning tracks and courses on this website to help you along your journey. Feel free to follow the ones that best suit your needs, and do not hesitate to reach out directly to me if you have any questions or if I can give you some advice on your current challenges!

Open-Access Knowledge

Medium Tutorials and Articles: Standalone Guides and Tutorials on 3D Data Processing (5′ to 45′)
Research Papers and Articles: Research Papers published as part of my public R&D work.
Email Course: Access a 7-day E-Mail Course to Start your 3D Journey
Youtube Education: Not articles, not research papers, open videos to learn everything around 3D.

3D Online Courses

3D Python Crash Course (Complete Standalone). 3D Coding with Python.
3D Photogrammetry Course (Complete Standalone): Open-Source 3D Reconstruction.

Architect Spatial Intelligence.

The Brain-to-Deploy methodology. From first principles to production-grade 3D AI.

The Foundation

€1 997 €7 249

Founding Price Lifetime Access

Master the core 3D AI stack. For innovators building a strategic edge in spatial intelligence.

What you get

The spine of the program. Six Acts, and each one ends in a working system you build, from raw scan to deliverable: a desktop 3D app, a one-click reconstruction engine, a human-in-the-loop labeller, an end-to-end 3D classifier, a spatial AI agent and a Scan-to-BIM digital twin engine.
For each of the six systems, a student version you complete and a complete reference solution to check against. Code templates, datasets and handouts sit in your dashboard, so you never start from a blank page.
Every standalone specialty course: Gaussian splatting, PointNet, change detection, feature extraction and more, plus 3D Forge: Build Camp. The four Operating Systems come with Professional.
Two editions of my 3D AI software, both with source code. Learning is the guided workspace that runs your missions. The Build Camp edition of Science ships with 3D Forge: Build Camp. Use them in your paid client work, under the Neurones 3D Source Licence. Professional upgrades you to the Full edition.
The full eBook, plus everything around the episodes: guides, build notes for every build, a handout per lesson, real datasets and an interactive experience page per episode.
Open channels plus Foundation channels, to share work and get feedback. Once your builds are done, I stamp your certificate myself.
