As AI systems increasingly assist humans in physical tasks, ensuring safety becomes paramount -- physical actions carry immediate and irreversible consequences that digital errors do not. We introduce the Vision-Language Embodied Safety Agent (VLESA), a framework that monitors human activities from egocentric video and triggers real-time safety interventions when dangerous actions are predicted.

Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have recently shown immense potential in automated content moderation, sparking growing interest in developing harmful-video benchmarks. However, we identify two primary limitations in existing works: 1) The multi-layered characteristics of harmful videos are overlooked.

Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for autonomous driving scene understanding, yet existing methods still face a fundamental trade-off between temporal reasoning and spatial precision. Models that rely on single-frame or low-resolution inputs often miss small, distant, or partially occluded hazards, while language-centric driving models frequently provide limited grounded evidence for their explanations.
