RealWonder: Real-Time Physical Action-Conditioned Video Generation

We present Wonder, a general-purpose video world model for real-time, camera-controllable world exploration. Given an image or a conditional video, Wonder constructs a playable world where users can navigate interactively by moving the camera, discovering unseen regions, and revisiting previously observed areas in real time and over a long-term horizon. Achieving this capability requires a system-level co-design of control method, memory mechanism, and training strategy. We introduce a novel camera conditioning with a dense coordinate field whose renderings provide spatially aligned motion and orientation cues, allowing the model to interpret camera motion directly as visual evidence. To support fast and precise memory retrieval over a growing generation context, we propose an efficient sparse attention-based memory mechanism, enabling the model to selectively attend to a small set of relevant context tokens at inference time, regardless of actual context length. We further develop several techniques to rectify the self-forcing-style distillation pipeline, improving the student model's ability to respect control signals, as well as maintaining diverse generation modes and long-term memory from the teacher. Together, these components enable Wonder to synthesize diverse, minute-scale videos at 16 FPS while preserving coherent geometry, appearance, and dynamics across long rollouts. Beyond image-to-video generation, Wonder naturally supports video-conditioned generation, allowing existing dynamic scenes to be re-shot in real time.

Recent generative video models achieve impressive visual quality but remain constrained by limited physical consistency and controllability. Existing video generation methods provide minimal physical control, and single-image-to-3D conversion approaches often suffer from object interpenetration. Furthermore, physics-based scene-level 3D generation methods exhibit spatial misalignment, stylized artifacts, and inconsistencies with the input data, restricting their use in realistic interactive video synthesis. We propose TelePhysics, a training-free framework that converts a single image into a physically consistent and controllable video through holistic scene-level 3D reconstruction. By representing the full scene geometry in a unified spatial coordinate system, TelePhysics resolves object penetration and alignment ambiguity. Unlike prior methods, this formulation enables accurate scenelevel multi-object interactions and introduces richer, complex control types for advanced mechanicsbased manipulation. By decoupling simulation from rendering, TelePhysics bypasses latency-heavy priors, achieving real-time physical interaction previews paired while preserving photorealistic visual fidelity. Experimental results demonstrate that TelePhysics substantially outperforms prior methods in physical fidelity, spatial coherence, and controllability. The open-source code is available at https://github.com/xinzhang007/TelePhysics.

We present Fluid-Gen-Zero, a training-free framework for physics-aware fluid-object interaction video generation that decouples physical reasoning from appearance synthesis. Our key insight is to delegate motion dynamics to a physics simulator while preserving the appearance modeling capacity of pretrained video generators. We bridge these two domains through a two-level agentic workflow: generation-time planning, where a vision-language model (VLM) agent interprets intent and the simulation rollout to organize generation clips, and latent-space guidance, which injects simulation signals into denoising through region-aware latent wrapping. This plug-and-play design is compatible with current video foundation models. We further introduce a benchmark for fluid-object interaction video generation. Across Tora (CogVideoX-based), VACE and WanMove (Wan-based), Fluid-Gen-Zero consistently improves simulation alignment, reducing object trajectory error by 26.7%-81.5% and fluid fEPE (fluid flow endpoint error) by 67.9%-84.0%, while largely preserving perceptual quality. In a human preference study, raters favor Fluid-Gen-Zero in 55.1%-74.4% of same-backbone comparisons across three backbones, and in 90.4%-94.2% of comparisons against simulation-based methods. Code and data will be released upon acceptance.
