Robobench: A Comprehensive Evaluation Benchmark for Multimodal Large Language Models as Embodied Brain

Building robots that can perceive, reason, and act in dynamic, unstructured environments remains a central challenge. Recent embodied systems often follow a dual-system paradigm, where System 2 performs high-level reasoning and System 1 handles low-level control. We refer to System 2 as the embodied brain, the cognitive core for decision-making in manipulation. Although evaluating this embodied brain is crucial, existing benchmarks mainly measure execution success or cover only limited aspects of high-level cognition and task realism. We introduce RoboBench, a benchmark for evaluating multimodal large language models (MLLMs) as embodied brains. RoboBench covers five dimensions: Instruction Comprehension, Perception Reasoning, Generalized Planning, Affordance Prediction, and Failure Analysis. It spans 14 capabilities, 25 tasks, and 6,092 QA pairs. To improve realism, it draws from large-scale real robotic data and in-house collection across diverse embodiments, attribute-rich objects, multi-view scenes, and memory-driven navigation. For planning, RoboBench introduces an MLLM-as-world-simulator framework that assesses whether predicted plans can achieve critical object-state changes under physical and visual constraints, enabling more faithful evaluation of long-horizon reasoning than symbolic matching. Experiments on 18 state-of-the-art MLLMs reveal persistent limitations in implicit instruction understanding, spatiotemporal reasoning, cross-scenario planning, fine-grained affordance understanding, and failure diagnosis. We further analyze how embodied cognitive abilities relate to downstream robotic control. RoboBench offers a comprehensive scaffold for quantifying high-level cognition and guiding next-generation MLLMs toward more robust robotic intelligence.
