TESS-Computer/carla-simlingo-raw-clean

SimLingo CARLA Dataset (Raw, 4Hz)

Raw driving data from CARLA simulator. No transformations or derived fields - all original measurements preserved as-is.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset
import json

ds = load_dataset("TESS-Computer/carla-simlingo-raw-clean", split="train")

sample = ds[0]
print(sample['route_id'])
print(sample['steer'], sample['throttle'], sample['brake'])
print(sample['speed'])

# Parse JSON fields
pos = json.loads(sample['pos_global'])
boxes = json.loads(sample['boxes']) if sample['boxes'] else []
