Reading the Room: Robots and the Quest for Social Awareness

December 9, 2025 by BBG News

A two-stage pipeline first identifies socially relevant cues-such as brief gaze shifts or proxemic entries-to pinpoint potential signals directed toward a robot, subsequently triggering a video-based visual language model to reason about the observed scene and generate an evidence-grounded behavior log to inform action selection.

New research explores how advanced vision-language models can help robots interpret subtle social cues, paving the way for more natural and effective human-robot interactions.
