We create what comes next
Never done before. Never seen before. Never forgotten.
Beyond the screen.
We bring immersive storytelling beyond screens, projections and digital media, into the real 3D space around the visitor. Flying, kinetic and robotic objects move through the room, appear above and around people, react to them and become part of the story.
Spaces come alive.
Atriums, lobbies, ceilings, audience areas, even the air between people. Places that usually only frame a visit become part of the story: the experience is no longer limited to a screen or a stage, the entire environment takes part.
Starting with one question.
We begin with the space, the story and one question: what could happen here that people have never experienced before?
From audience to participant
The best experiences don’t just perform. They respond.
Our objects react to movement, gestures, positions and whole groups. A visitor approaches an object, and the object approaches them. Suddenly they are no longer watching. They are part of the experience.
The reaction
Track record
Extraordinary for visitors. Reliable for operators.
Our systems are not built for demonstrations or opening nights only. They are designed for daily operation, and after installation and training your own team runs the show. Spectacular doesn’t have to mean complicated.

Proven in the real world
Created around the space, the story and the audience.
- Flying Fish at the Xi’an Science and Technology Museum Three giant autonomous fish swim through a 20,000 m³ atrium every day — the largest indoor flying show in the world, and a Guinness World Record.
- Flying Lanterns at Lotte World Adventure Sixteen glowing lanterns flew a 20-minute choreography every night in the world’s largest indoor theme park — from 2013 to 2024.
- “Drifter” — A Floating Concrete Monolith on World Tour Five concrete monoliths float silently above the audience. The flying technology behind Studio Drift’s acclaimed touring artwork.
- The Birth of the Solar System — Future Energy Expo Opening Eighteen flying planets, a 30-metre screen and seventeen heads of state in the audience.
- Autonomous Flying Fish at the Museum of the Future Silver fish drift above the crowds in one of the most photographed buildings on earth.
- +/- Human at the Roundhouse, London Seven orbs choose people from the crowd and respond to them — with dancers of The Royal Ballet.
- eMotionButterflies Ultralight butterflies fly as a swarm, powered only by their wings — tracked 160 times per second.
- Interactive SkyOrbs for Mercedes-Benz at the IAA A world premiere: flying orbs become flying pixels, drawing on LED screens to unveil a Mercedes-Benz concept car.
- “AI Blossom” at Experimenta Science Center Artificial flowers that sense and respond to visitors — and a golden sphere that rises from a 3.2-metre blossom and floats through the hall.

Why SkySpirit
One partner. From impossible idea to daily operation.
We don’t resell ideas. We innovate.
Every experience is created around your story, your venue and your audience.
Everything in-house
Flying objects, kinetic systems, robotics, software, tracking, interaction, media and choreography: designed and built by one team in Stuttgart, as one experience.
Built for real venues
Our systems are engineered for permanent installations, repeated shows and daily operation.
Your team can run it
After commissioning and training, normal operation is managed locally. You don’t need us permanently on site.
20 years of experience
Our work combines creativity with deep experience in robotics, automation and autonomous systems.
The technology behind the magic
The magic is invisible.
Behind every movement is a combination of autonomous control, tracking, sensors, embedded intelligence and interaction software, with SkyTrack, our own tracking and control system, at its core.
We choose the technology around the experience we want to create. Not the other way around.

How we work together
From first idea to living experience.
- 01
Imagine
What should visitors see, feel and remember? You don’t need a brief, just a conversation about your space.
- 02
Create
We develop the experience around your space, story and audience. You see it all before we build a thing.
- 03
Build
Objects, software, interaction and choreography are engineered as one system in our Stuttgart workshop.
- 04
Bring it to life
We install, commission and test the complete experience on site.
- 05
Hand it over
Your team is trained to operate the installation independently.
Every project is made to measure, and so is the timeline. Depending on size, our projects have gone from first contact to opening in 1 to 6 months.
What clients say
What people say after the first flight.
“SkySpirit has been an outstanding partner. Fast and reliable delivery, consistently high service standards, and genuine collaboration rather than plain execution. They listen, they follow through, and they make complex work feel simple. I’m glad we chose to work with them.”
