The recently developed Sora model [1] has exhibited remarkable capabilities
in video generation, sparking intense discussions regarding its ability to
simulate real-world phenomena. Despite its growing popularity, there is a lack
of established metrics to evaluate its fidelity to real-world physics
quantitatively. In this paper, we introduce a new benchmark that assesses the
quality of the generated videos based on their adherence to real-world physics
principles. We employ a method that transforms the generated videos into 3D
models, leveraging the premise that the accuracy of 3D reconstruction is
heavily contingent on the video quality. From the perspective of 3D
reconstruction, we use the fidelity of the geometric constraints satisfied by
the constructed 3D models as a proxy to gauge the extent to which the generated
videos conform to real-world physics rules. Project page:
