Zidan M is a founder and AI leader with nine years of hands-on experience building production-grade computer vision, LiDAR and deep learning systems across autonomous driving, smart infrastructure and sports/gaming. He founded Magentic AI and a preceding stealth startup after leading applied AI and platform engineering at Move.ai, translating research prototypes into scalable real-time pipelines. His background includes patent-driven product development for multi-object tracking and speed enforcement, and published work on LiDAR/3D detection that influenced subsequent research (Yolo3D/Yolo4D workshop papers). Based in London, he combines entrepreneurial grit with technical depth—comfortable moving from low-level sensor fusion to platform architecture—and often focuses on real-time, safety-critical inference. An intriguing personal touch: his GitHub bio hints at audacious ambition (“born on Earth to die on Mars”) and a focus on “Magentic AI,” suggesting a long-term vision that marries space-scale thinking with grounded engineering.
