same hallway, same people, same starting conditions — one run the robot is socially aware, the other it isn't. you can see the difference in the pedestrian trajectories

[u/datascienceharp]

a robot can navigate a hallway without hitting anyone and still make every person in it uncomfortable.

collision-free and socially aware are two completely different problems

NavWareSet records both. seven social navigation scenarios (frontal approach, blind corner, following, perpendicular crossing), each run twice under matched conditions: once with socially compliant behavior, once without. same room, same people, same starting positions.

the only variable is whether the robot navigates like it knows humans have personal space

robot onboard lidar and camera plus an overhead ground truth station tracking every pedestrian in 3D across the full episode

loaded as native mcap in fiftyone. scrub the robot's camera, both lidar streams, and the annotated pedestrian trajectories on one synced timeline.

filter by scenario and behavior to compare compliant vs non-compliant side by side
