Digital content can have a particular impact when it becomes part of a physical location.
Digital Installations for Museums, Exhibitions and Events
We develop interactive installations for museums, exhibitions, visitor centres, trade fairs, events, showrooms and mobile educational programmes. From interactive touch applications, media stations and projections to VR stations, we combine content, design, software and hardware to create a coherent experience.
We manage the entire process: from concept and media production to development, technical planning, installation, configuration and support.
What is a digital installation?
A digital installation is a permanent or mobile application that makes digital content interactive at a physical location. It may be used through a touchscreen, VR headset, projection, large display or a combination of different devices.
Unlike a conventional website, a digital installation is developed for a specific spatial and technical situation. Visitors should be able to understand it immediately, operate it intuitively and use it reliably even under demanding conditions. That is why we consider content, interaction, design and technology together from the beginning.
Content before technology
We do not begin with the device. We begin with the question: what should people discover, understand or experience at this location?
We develop digital installations as narrative and interactive formats. Real places and people, 360° footage, film, photography, maps, 3D elements, animation, audio, games and additional information can all be combined.
Our particular strength lies in connecting reality-based content with intuitive interaction. This creates applications that communicate knowledge, tell stories and encourage visitors to participate actively.
Digital installations for different locations
Museums and exhibitions
Interactive media stations create new ways of accessing exhibits, subjects and collections. Touchscreens, 360° applications, maps, films, games and VR experiences allow visitors to explore content individually.
Visitor and nature centres
Digital applications make habitats, research and conservation accessible. They can show places that cannot be visited, illustrate seasonal change or enable encounters with animals and landscapes.
Education and interpretation
Digital learning stations combine knowledge with independent exploration. Content can be communicated through tasks, hotspots, quizzes, interactive stories and playful decisions.
Trade fairs, events and roadshows
Interactive installations attract attention and make it possible to present extensive content within a limited physical space. They can be permanently integrated into a stand or designed as mobile systems.
Showrooms, companies and brand spaces
Products, processes and company stories can be communicated through digital exhibits, touch applications and immersive experiences.
Our formats
Permanent, mobile and offline
A permanent museum installation has different requirements from a mobile event presentation or a VR headset used by an education team in schools.
We therefore develop a suitable technical concept for each project. Applications can operate online, through a local network or completely offline. Operation, updates, transportation, installation and maintenance are considered during planning.
From the initial idea to the finished installation
- Concept and consulting: Together, we define the target groups, content, location, spatial conditions and desired interaction.
- Storytelling and interpretation: We structure the content and develop a narrative appropriate to the location and usage situation.
- Design and user experience: The design reflects the physical space, the client's visual identity and the needs of the audience.
- Media production and development: We produce and prepare film, photography, 360°, audio, animation, 3D, maps, games and interactive information modules.
- Hardware and installation: We select suitable displays, touchscreens, computers, VR headsets and other components. We then handle configuration, testing and installation on site.
- Operation and support: Depending on the project, we provide updates, technical support and further development. Mobile systems can be prepared for quick installation and straightforward operation.

Frequently asked questions
What kinds of digital installations does Kubikfoto develop?
We develop interactive touch applications, media stations, VR stations, mobile VR systems, projections, digital exhibitions and applications for large displays.
Does Kubikfoto also provide hardware and installation?
Yes. In addition to concept, design, media production and software development, we can provide hardware planning, procurement, configuration and on-site installation.
Are permanent museum installations possible?
Yes. We develop systems for long-term use in museums, exhibitions and visitor centres, considering intuitive operation, intensive use, reliable performance and future updates.
Does Kubikfoto develop mobile installations?
Yes. Applications and hardware can be prepared for events, roadshows, presentations and schools. This includes mobile VR headsets with offline versions.
Can existing 360° and WebXR projects be used as installations?
In many cases, yes. Existing experiences can be adapted for touchscreens, VR stations or mobile headsets and optimised for the location and intended hardware.
Can installations work without an internet connection?
Yes. Depending on the project, applications can run locally or completely offline.
Are accessible operating concepts possible?
Yes. Accessibility and different usage situations can be considered during concept development, design and technical implementation.
Digital content becomes part of the space
A good digital installation does not simply place a screen or VR headset in a room. It connects the location, content and interaction to create an experience that people understand immediately and want to explore.
We develop individual solutions ranging from a single touch application to a complete digital exhibition.
