Taming an End-to-End Autonomous Driving Policy for Urban Navigation of Quadruped Robots

arXiv:2610.08812v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Go2-DrivoR, a goal-conditioned adaptation of the end-to-end autonomous driving trajectory planning framework DrivoR for urban navigation with quadrupedal robots. By conditioning trajectory generation on a local-frame subgoal through a goal token and adapting the vehicle-centric scoring formulation, the method extends DrivoR to short-horizon goal-conditioned local planning without redesigning its core decoders.

arXiv:2610.08812v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Go2-DrivoR, a goal-conditioned adaptation of the end-to-end autonomous driving trajectory planning framework DrivoR for urban navigation with quadrupedal robots. By conditioning trajectory generation on a local-frame subgoal through a goal token and adapting the vehicle-centric scoring formulation, the method extends DrivoR to short-horizon goal-conditioned local planning without redesigning its core decoders. Specifically, we redefine drivable-area compliance for sidewalk-oriented navigation and reformulate the original ego progress term as goal-conditioned ego progress. Trained exclusively on TartanGround simulation data, Go2-DrivoR improves waypoint-conditioned planning performance on unseen simulation environments and transfers zero-shot to open-loop real-world trajectory prediction.
