VLA4CoDrive is a large-scale cooperative Vision–Language–Action (VLA) dataset designed to support autonomous driving under multi-vehicle cooperation. This work has been accepted to the IEEE/CVF Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV) 2026. This dataset was developed at AI-SENDs Lab, Clemson University, USA.

--- ## 🔍 Overview

We introduce VLA4CoDrive, a cooperative Vision–Language–Action dataset with synchronized multi-vehicle sensing across diverse driving environments, providing multi-view visual streams, contextual text annotations including caption, context, description, and reasoning, and future trajectory actions for training and evaluating VLA driving models.

--- ## 📌 Dataset

VLA4CoDrive is organized into three tightly aligned modalities, Vision, Language, and Action, each captured under the following settings:

- 🤝 **Cooperative Multi-Vehicle Setup** Synchronized sensing from multiple vehicles within the same driving episode. - 👁️ **Multi-View & Multi-Modal Perception** RGB front, rear, left, and right cameras, LiDAR, semantic LiDAR, optical flow, GNSS, and IMU. - 📝 **Structured Vision–Language Grounding** Clip-level annotations including **Context, Caption, Description, and Reasoning**. - 🎯 **Action & Trajectory Supervision** Low-level controls including steer, throttle, and brake, together with 30-step future trajectories. - 🌦️ **Controlled Diversity** 8 CARLA towns × 8 weather conditions with frame-aligned replay. - 📏 **Large-Scale Dataset** - ~10M vision samples - ~150K language annotations - ~1M action records - ~300–360 hours of driving data - 📦 **Standard Annotation Formats** COCO, PASCAL VOC, KITTI 2D, and KITTI 3D.
--- ## 👁️ VLA4CoDrive — Vision

Multi-view and multi-modal perception from synchronized cooperating vehicles, capturing complementary visual evidence for cooperative understanding.

--- ## 📝 VLA4CoDrive — Language

Structured, clip-level language grounding generated from synchronized multi-agent scenes, capturing both scene semantics and short-horizon driving intent.

The language annotations include: - **Context** - **Caption** - **Description** - **Reasoning** --- ## 🎯 VLA4CoDrive — Action

Time-aligned action supervision providing low-level controls and future trajectory targets, enabling imitation, forecasting, and language-conditioned planning.
