Work Background
Dentro NavigationCo-Founder & CTO
Jun. 2024I am the CTO and Co-founder of Dentro Navigation, a startup focused on transforming the way we navigate indoor spaces. You can find out more about us at www.dentronavigation.com
We're using Google Cloud (specifically Vertex / Firebase / Compute / Storage) to build an automated system to map, inventorise and navigate any indoor space - from retail to malls to tradeshows - without any ML training time required.
Imagine being able to search for the ingredients for dinner, be directed to the nearest store which stocked the necessary ingredients, then getting optimised in-store directions and a traversable 3D map to each ingredient. This is just one of thousands of possibilities.
