Meet Your Guide

Dr. Florent Poux

From Field Surveys to Spatial AI

I started on archaeology digs, measuring walls with tape and cameras. Twenty years later I’m shipping spatial AI systems for R&D teams in Europe and the US. I’ve walked every step in between, and that’s what I teach.

How I Help

I’ve raised millions for startups. I’ve published with O’Reilly. I’ve taught at university and led R&D for major companies.

I don’t teach syntax. I teach judgment. Every track is built around real decisions. Which neural renderer fits an industrial inspection job. How to architect a semantic pipeline that scales past the demo. How to ship AI workflows, not just prototype them.

You walk away with tools that keep paying off. Not a certificate on a shelf.

The Vision

Six years ago I watched a senior engineer, brilliant with code, freeze in front of executives. The question was simple. “Should we use this tech, or that one?”

The Academy exists to build technical leaders who design systems instead of following tutorials. People who can walk into a room full of conflicting data, tight budgets and unclear tech, and still make the call.

Because in the AI era, everyone can run the tools. The edge belongs to those who know which one to pick, and why.

Teaching Philosophy

Tools change every year. The pipeline doesn’t. I teach the full chain, from capture to deployed insight, the way I wish someone had taught me. That’s how you stop being dependent on whatever vendor is hot this quarter.

Practical First

Every concept lands in a real project. No isolated theory.

Community Driven

You learn faster with peers who are one step ahead of you, and one step behind.

Continuously Updated

When the field moves, the material moves with it. I add new methods as they land.
