An advanced Compton telescope appears to be the best instrument concept for the next generation gamma-ray space observatory in the MeV range. A first prototype of advanced Compton telescope is being developed to match the constraints of a nano satellite mission, with the scientific objective of measuring gamma-ray burst prompt emission polarization. Our instrumental developments for this project are focusing on the position-sensitive calorimeter module, made of a monolithic inorganic CeBr$_3$ scintillator read by a pixelated photodetector. 3D position reconstruction is obtained by deep-learning algorithms that have been optimized down to an uncertainty of 2 mm for each spatial direction.
