## Abstract (arXiv)

Instruction-conditioned trajectory prediction is an emerging problem in autonomous driving, where a model predicts the future ego trajectory not only from visual scene context and historical motion, but also from a natural-language maneuver instruction. This paper presents our submission to the doScenes Instructed Driving Challenge, built upon OmniDrive, a vision-language-action driving agent with 3D perception, reasoning, and planning capabilities. We adapt OmniDrive to the doScenes setting by training it on instruction-annotated nuScenes scenes and generating a 6-second ego trajectory represented by 12 future waypoints. To improve multi-view visual grounding, we further introduce a DVPE-style divided-view perception module into the OmniDrive perception head. Instead of attending globally to all camera features, the proposed module groups query features and image tokens into divided local view spaces and performs visibility-aware cross-attention within each view. This design reduces irrelevant cross-view interference and helps the model better align language instructions with local driving-relevant visual evidence.
