IndustryNav Industrial Warehouse Navigation Simulation Benchmark Released

1 reports · 1 sources

Yifan Li and co-authors propose the IndustryNav simulation environment, comprising 24 warehouse scenarios, for evaluating embodied agents' ability to navigate closed-loop to specified destinations, and introduce safety metrics that record collisions and near-collision warnings. The authors report that experiments on 11 mainstream open-source and closed-source VLLMs and 3 navigation baselines show that agents can reach goals but collide with moving obstacles, exposing a gap between task success and safe navigation. The environment also supports policy learning through automatic oracle trajectories and simulator interaction, and tests generalization with held-out scenarios.

  1. IndustryNav: Evaluating Spatial Reasoning and Safety of Embodied Agents in Dynamic Industrial Navigation

    The authors propose IndustryNav, a simulation environment with 24 warehouse scenes for closed-loop navigation to specified destinations, and introduce safety metrics that record collisions and near-collision warnings. Experiments with 11 leading open- and closed-source VLLMs and 3 navigation baselines show that agents can reach their goals yet collide with moving obstacles, exposing a gap between task success and safe navigation.
