| contents | We present MiniVLA-Nav v1, a simulation dataset for Language-Conditioned Object Approach (LCOA) navigation: given a short natural-language instruction, an NVIDIA Nova Carter differential-drive robot must navigate to the named object and stop within 1 m across four photorealistic Isaac Sim environments (Office, Hospital, Full Warehouse, and Warehouse with Multiple Shelves). Each of the 1,174 episodes pairs an instruction with synchronized 640x640 RGB images, metric depth maps (float32, metres), and instance segmentation masks, together with continuous (v,omega) and 7x7 tokenized expert action labels recorded at 60 Hz from a vision-based proportional controller. Trajectory diversity is ensured through three spawn-distance tiers (near: 1.5-3.5 m, mid: 3.5-7.0 m, far: global curated points; Pearson r=0.94 between spawn distance and trajectory length), 12 object categories, 18 training templates, and 12 paraphrase-OOD templates. Five evaluation splits support in-distribution accuracy, template-paraphrase robustness, and OOD object-category benchmarking. The dataset is publicly available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/alibustami/miniVLA-Nav |
