At KUKA’s headquarters in Augsburg, Germany, a new showroom transforms high-tech innovation into an immersive experience. One of the world’s leading robotics and automation companies, KUKA presents a striking installation that combines its robotics technology with Samsung Electronics’ display solutions.
At the center of the showroom, a kinetic art installation features two KUKA industrial robots moving a 65-inch Samsung Smart Signage display in perfect synchronization. Positioned in front of a Samsung IEA Indoor series 4K LED display composed of 64 cabinets, the panels open like a curtain to reveal vivid digital art across the large-scale backdrop. Content ranges from close-ups of performers to motion graphics and other dynamic visuals.
With a 2.0mm pixel pitch, the IEA series display delivers sharp detail and vivid color, even at close range. The clarity enhances the robot-led performance, allowing visitors to see how precisely KUKA’s robots move, respond and animate visual content.
▲ Each KUKA robot moves a 65-inch Samsung QM65C Smart Signage display in sync, creating a showstopping performance. ▲ Samsung display technology highlights KUKA’s robotic precision through movement, color and digital storytelling. In another area of the showroom, five vertically mounted 105-inch Samsung QPDX-5K Smart Signage displays in a 21:9 format create a realistic “production window” effect. The supersized screens give visitors the feeling of looking directly into an automated manufacturing line, bringing the experience of a factory tour into the space. The installation offers another example of KUKA’s engineering capabilities, demonstrating how robotics can be presented with precision and impact.
▲ Vertically installed Samsung QPDX-5K Smart Signage creates a “production window” effect into KUKA’s automated production environment. “We want to make complex technologies feel tangible and engaging while remaining flexible across different presentation formats,” said Lorenz Löbermann, Global Lead Corporate Brand Management at KUKA Group. “Samsung displays meet these needs perfectly.”
The showroom also incorporates 16 Samsung VMC-R video wall displays, further expanding the installation’s visual range. MEDIA tek,1 the project’s integration partner, customized and installed the Samsung solution — combining LED, large-format LCD and video wall displays to create a cohesive and immersive experience.
▲ Amit Chatterjee discusses how the collaboration with KUKA and MEDIA tek brings display systems into a real-world setting. “Together with KUKA and MEDIA tek, we implemented a project that makes smart technology and quality accessible to everyone,” said Amit Chatterjee, Manager of Presales Solutions at Samsung Electronics Germany.
The showroom gives visitors a more direct way to experience KUKA’s innovations. Robots, displays and digital content come together to show automation in motion rather than as a static concept.

As visitors make their way through the line for ‘Safari World: The Wild’ at Everland, Korea’s largest theme park located in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, a surprising encounter turns the wait into an extension of the safari adventure itself. On a display with true-to-life scale, realistic tigers and lions appear ready to leap out of the screen and into the queue, adding a heightened sense of excitement before the experience begins.
Samsung Electronics recently installed its glasses-free 3D display, Spatial Signage, at the newly renovated Safari World at Everland, adding a new dimension to the visitor experience. Powered by Samsung’s patented 3D Plate technology, the display delivers striking depth and realism without the need for 3D glasses — all within a slim 52-millimeter profile.
Samsung Newsroom visited Everland to see how Spatial Signage is making the wait more engaging and to hear firsthand how visitors responded to the immersive display.
▲ Spatial Signage installed in the waiting area of Everland’s Safari World
Spatial Signage Sets the Stage for a Safari Adventure
Even before the safari tour begins, visitors are greeted by animals brought to life on Spatial Signage. The vivid movement and “screen-breaking” three-dimensional effect deepen the sense of immersion, building excitement for the adventure ahead.
▲ Spatial Signage heightens anticipation for the safari adventure with its glasses-free 3D visuals. “Following Safari World’s reopening as a reimagined ecological space with enhanced animal welfare, we wanted to connect every stage of the guest experience — from entry and waiting lines to the safari bus ride — under a unified theme,” said Jiyeon Bae, Leader of Partnership & Alliance Group, Resort Business Division at Samsung C&T. “We saw Spatial Signage as the most effective way to lead guest into the safari adventure.”
Bae added, “To create the atmosphere of a wild expedition, we installed large-scale animal artwork featuring life-size bears, lions and tigers along the waiting route. Extending that visual experience with Spatial Signage, which gives the animals a vivid dimensionality, allowed us to further enhance visitors’ sense of immersion.”
Despite its large 85-inch size, the display also offers considerable flexibility in installation. “Taking into account the attributes of the waiting area, we created a custom frame that blends seamlessly with Safari World’s atmosphere,” Bae said. “This allowed us to position the display naturally within the queue without disrupting the overall environment.”
▲ Bae said watching young children stop to look at the animals on screen shows how Spatial Signage adds a unique element of fun to the waiting area. “Spatial Signage also plays an important role in building anticipation by giving visitors a preview of the animals they are about to see before boarding the safari bus,” noted Bae. “When young children stop in their tracks after spotting a bear or lion on the screen, their eyes often widen with excitement. It becomes clear that the immersive quality of the content is resonating with guests.”
Turning The Wait Time Into a Fascinating 3D Experience
Visitors on-site responded enthusiastically. In particular, the glasses-free 3D experience changed the mood of the waiting area, making it feel like more than just a place to stand in line. Rather than simply watching the screen, they interacted with the animals, took photos and treated the wait itself as part of the fun.
▲ Visitors take photos with the animals on Spatial Signage, turning time spent waiting into part of the overall experience. One visitor who came to Everland with family said, “It felt as if real animals were moving right in front of us. Taking photos with the kids while we waited made the time fly by.” The visitor added, “Seeing the children get excited even before meeting the real animals has made the trip especially worthwhile.” Students visiting on a field trip were equally impressed. “I thought you needed glasses to see 3D, but the tiger looked so real when it seemed to break out of the screen that it genuinely surprised me,” said one student.
▲ Visitors described the vivid movement of the animals on screen as strikingly lifelike. “Seeing the wild animals we are about to meet truly built the anticipation for the safari,” said a couple waiting in the queue together. “It feels like we have already stepped into the safari before even getting on the bus.” A group of tourists visiting Korea also shared their impressions: “The tigers, lions, and bears look so vividly real, as if alive. It makes the wait so much more enjoyable and helps lift spirits before entering the safari adventure.”
Where Technology Meets Space — A New Spatial Interface
▲ Jin, CEO of Klleon, the content development company, emphasized the role of Spatial Signage, serving as an innovative interface that enables visitors to experience the space itself. “Spatial Signage goes beyond simply delivering information — it serves as a spatial interface that enables visitors to directly experience the place they are visiting,” said SeungHyuk Jin, CEO of Klleon, which led the content development for Spatial Signage at Safari World. “We focused on capturing the natural movement of the animals and creating a sense of spatial depth so visitors are immediately immersed in the world of safari while waiting in line.”
At Everland’s Safari World, Samsung Spatial Signage helps shape the identity of the space and adds a new layer of immersion to the visitor journey. With innovations like Spatial Signage, Samsung continues to set the standard for immersive and engaging display experiences across industries.
