Rotating Hexagon Ball Physics

A physics sandbox benchmark comparing frontier thinking models

Description

An interactive simulation of multiple balls bouncing inside a rotating hexagon, used as part of an 8-test benchmark comparison. The project demonstrates the zero-shot coding and reasoning capabilities of frontier models in handling complex collision physics and motion.
