Assessing proxemic danger from a robot's egocentric perspective is critical for safe embodied navigation in human environments and requires both visual and contextual reasoning. We evaluate three opensource vision-language models (VLMs) (\textit{InternVL}, \textit{Qwen-VL}, and \textit{SmolVLM}) on the classification of egocentric robot images into four danger levels, comparing three prompting strategies and two rounds of QLoRA fine-tuning against a stratified random baseline.
