Recent advancements in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have evolved from static perception to interleaved visual-language reasoning, often referred to as ``thinking with images''. A basic operation in this reasoning process is to zoom in on regions of interest (often represented with bounding boxes) to acquire finer visual details.
