We are thrilled to announce the introduction of LMDrive, a pioneering language-based, end-to-end, closed-loop autonomous driving framework! This remarkable technology has the potential to revolutionize the field of autonomous driving by combining natural language understanding with multi-modal, multi-view sensor data to interact with its dynamic environment. The researchers behind this project have released a dataset with over 64,000 data clips, each containing a navigation instruction, several notification instructions, a series of multi-modal, multi-view sensor data, and control signals, with the length of the clip varying from 2 to 20 seconds.
The team has also created the LangAuto Benchmark to assess autonomous agents that use linguistic commands as inputs for navigation. This benchmark consists of complex components, such as convoluted or deceptive directions and hostile driving situations. In addition, a number of in-depth closed-loop tests have been performed to evaluate the efficiency of the LMDrive architecture, which will open the door for more studies on this topic by shedding light on the functionality of its various components.
This remarkable approach has the potential to solve the issues of existing autonomous driving systems, such as their dependence on limited-format inputs and their inability to understand language information and communicate with people. It can also improve the overall efficiency and safety of autonomous driving systems by utilizing the remarkable reasoning powers of large language models.
