Introducing MiniMax Hailuo 02 Pro: Ultra-Clear 1080P AI Video Generation With Physics-Aware Rendering

The AI video generation landscape just got a powerful upgrade. MiniMax’s Hailuo 02 Pro is now available on WaveSpeedAI, bringing cinema-grade 1080P video generation with unprecedented physics simulation to creators, filmmakers, and developers worldwide. Ranked #2 globally on the Artificial Analysis benchmark—surpassing Google Veo 3—this premium model represents a significant leap forward in what AI-generated video can achieve.

What is Hailuo 02 Pro?

Hailuo 02 Pro is the premium tier of MiniMax’s groundbreaking Hailuo 02 model, codenamed “Kangaroo.” While the standard version delivers impressive results at 768p, the Pro variant unlocks the full potential of the platform with native 1080P output, enhanced physics simulation, and superior temporal coherence.

At its core, Hailuo 02 Pro is built on MiniMax’s innovative Noise-aware Compute Redistribution (NCR) architecture. This system dynamically allocates computational resources based on scene complexity, ensuring that challenging elements—like fast-moving debris, flowing water, or complex character motions—receive the processing power they need. The result is a model that’s 2.5x more efficient than its predecessor while delivering dramatically better results.

What truly sets Hailuo 02 Pro apart is its dual-mode capability: it supports both Text-to-Video (T2V) for generating videos from descriptions alone, and Image-to-Video (I2V) for animating still images with optional end-frame guidance. This flexibility makes it an incredibly versatile tool for virtually any video generation workflow.

Key Features

Native 1080P Resolution Unlike models that upscale lower-resolution output, Hailuo 02 Pro generates crisp, full HD frames directly. Every pixel is intentional, with richer micro-detail and deeper color depth that stands up to professional scrutiny.

Physics-Aware Rendering This is where Hailuo 02 Pro truly shines. The physics engine incorporates real-world parameters including viscosity, elasticity, and drag coefficients. Fabric ripples naturally in wind. Water splashes with realistic fluid dynamics. Collisions scatter debris with accurate momentum. It’s currently the only AI model capable of rendering complex motions like gymnastics and acrobatics with production-quality realism.

Superior Temporal Coherence One of the biggest challenges in AI video generation is maintaining consistency across frames. Hailuo 02 Pro dramatically reduces the flickering and warping that plague other models, delivering smoother camera movements and cleaner transitions throughout every clip.

Enhanced Prompt Adherence Complex scenes with multiple elements, specific lighting conditions, and detailed camera directions are rendered more faithfully. The model understands and executes sophisticated creative visions with remarkable accuracy.

Image-Guided Control Start with a reference image to lock in your desired composition and style. Add an optional end image to guide transitions, giving you precise control over how your video begins and concludes.

Fixed 5-Second Output Every generation produces a consistent 5-second clip at professional-grade frame rates, making it easy to plan and budget for your projects.

Real-World Use Cases

Film and Video Production

Pre-visualization has never been more accessible. Directors and cinematographers can generate concept footage to communicate their vision before committing to expensive shoots. The physics-accurate rendering means even action sequences with complex motion can be pre-visualized convincingly.

Marketing and Advertising

Create eye-catching product videos with cinematic camera movements and dramatic lighting. The model excels at atmospheric shots—imagine a low tracking shot through a neon-lit market in the rain, with steam rising and reflections gleaming on wet surfaces.

Social Media Content

The viral potential of Hailuo 02 has already been proven—realistic cat diving clips generated by the model spread across TikTok and Reddit when it launched. Content creators can produce scroll-stopping videos that stand out in crowded feeds.

Game Development and Animation

Generate reference footage for animators, create cinematic trailers, or produce cutscene concepts. The model’s ability to handle fantasy and sci-fi scenarios makes it particularly valuable for game studios.

Educational Content

Visualize complex physics concepts, historical events, or scientific processes with realistic motion and accurate physical interactions. The physics-aware rendering ensures educational content looks credible and professional.

E-commerce and Product Visualization

Transform static product images into dynamic videos that showcase items from multiple angles with professional lighting and camera work—all without a physical photo shoot.

Getting Started on WaveSpeedAI

Using Hailuo 02 Pro on WaveSpeedAI is straightforward:

1. Craft Your Prompt: Describe your scene cinematically. Include details about subjects, lighting, motion, and camera behavior. For example: “Low, wide tracking shot through a neon-lit market in the rain; steam, reflections, handheld vibe, shallow DOF, cinematic grade.”

2. Add Reference Images (Optional): For I2V mode, upload a starting image to anchor your composition and style. You can also add an end image to guide the final frame.

3. Enable Prompt Expansion: Toggle this option to let the model refine your prompt and run safety checks automatically.

4. Generate: Submit your request and receive your 1080P video.

At just $0.48 per generation, Hailuo 02 Pro delivers exceptional value for professional-quality output. WaveSpeedAI’s infrastructure ensures you get fast inference with no cold starts—your videos generate quickly and reliably every time.
