TruckDrive is a long-range autonomous highway driving dataset designed for heavy-truck safety, perception, prediction, and planning research. It targets high-speed highway operation, where reliable scene understanding hundreds of meters ahead is required for anticipatory planning and safe braking.
This repository hosts the **TruckDrive Devkit** together with release documentation.
