This paper presents a low-cost, open experimental platform for research in end-to-end autonomous driving with miniature Ackermann vehicles. The platform combines a physical vehicle, a printed urban track, data collection tools, trajectory registration, and a Webots digital twin, enabling controlled experiments that connect simulation-based autonomous-driving methods to real-world execution. As a first baseline, we implement command-conditioned behavior cloning, in which a neural policy receives an on-board camera image and a high-level navigation command and outputs steering and speed.
