I'm confused about why you need yolo and llava. Can't you simply use yolo without a multimodal LLM? What does that add? You can use yolo to detect and grab screen coordinates on its own, right?

Skimming through the source it seems to run 'car' and 'person' objects through llava with the following prompt:

- "person": "get gender and age of this person in 5 words or less",

- "car": "get body type and color of this car in 5 words or less".

So YOLO gives the bounding box and rough category, while llava describes the object in more details.

Almost certainly using yolo to segment the cars, then llava for the more detailed "silver sedan" description
