让大模型学会主动看，用强化学习提升视觉感知效率。

Active vision, also known as active perception, refers to actively selecting where and how to look in order to gather task-relevant information. It is a critical component of efficient perception and decision-making in humans and advanced embodied agents. With the rise of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) as central planners in robotic systems, the lack of methods for equipping MLLMs with active perception has become a key gap. We first provide a systematic definition of MLLM-based active perception tasks and show that GPT-o3's zoom-in strategy can be viewed as a special case, though it suffers from low efficiency and inaccurate region selection. To address these issues, we propose ACTIVE-o3, a reinforcement learning framework built on GRPO that equips MLLMs with active perception capabilities. Leveraging a modular sensing-action design and a dual-form reward, ACTIVE-o3 autonomously learns efficient and stable region selection strategies without explicit region-selection supervision. We further establish a comprehensive benchmark covering both open-world tasks, including small- and dense-object grounding, and domain-specific scenarios, including remote sensing, autonomous driving, and interactive segmentation. Experimental results demonstrate that ACTIVE-o3 significantly enhances active perception capabilities compared to baselines. Moreover, we show that our framework not only preserves the model's general understanding ability but can also serve as a proxy task for leveraging perception data, further improving performance on benchmarks such as RealWorldQA and MME.
