Places that are otherwise
inaccessible

Impossible Places transports visitors to places in their own city they have never entered and never will — to the top of the TV tower, on top of the Brandenburg Gate, on the dome of the Frauenkirche. AI makes it possible.

The special thing: the visitor immediately recognises the place — they know the landmark, they know how high it is, they know it is actually impossible to stand there. That is precisely what makes the image so shareable.

01

Choose an impossible place

On the touchscreen the visitor selects from several local impossibilities — tower top, dome, bridge railing, rooftop terrace. All places are landmarks of the location.

02

Step in front of the camera

The visitor steps into the marked position. Posture and perspective are captured automatically — the AI calculates the correct perspective for the chosen place.

03

AI places the visitor at the impossible location

In 4–8 seconds the visitor appears at the chosen location — with correct perspective, real background, realistic light. Not like a cutout, but like a real photo.

04

Pay and share

Payment by card or NFC. The image arrives via QR code on the smartphone — ready for Instagram, WhatsApp and TikTok with the claim: "I was up there."

Features & Benefits

Immediate recognition

Visitors know the landmarks — and know exactly that it is impossible to stand there. This tension between knowing and seeing makes the image particularly powerful.

Maximum viral potential

"I was on top of the Brandenburg Gate" — this claim alone is enough for hundreds of shares. Impossible Places has the highest organic sharing potential of all products.

Strong for tourism destinations

Particularly effective at locations with well-known landmarks — visitors want the image as a personal souvenir. Impossible Places beats every physical souvenir alternative.

Identical hardware

Runs on the same hardware as all other CosmoProducts booths. For existing operators: pure content upgrade without new device investment.

Outdoor screen stops passers-by

When the outdoor screen shows someone sitting on the TV tower — nobody stays indifferent. Impossible Places has the strongest outdoor impact of all AI products.

Expandable per season

New locations can be added at any time via content update — seasonal variants like winter panorama or summer light are easy to upload.

Every city has its
impossible places

For every location, 3 specific impossible places are produced — all based on real landmarks that visitors know and immediately recognise.

Berlin

TV Tower, Brandenburg Gate, Reichstag — three of the most well-known landmarks in Germany as impossible viewpoints.

Dresden

Frauenkirche, Zwinger and Brühlsche Terrasse — the Florence of the Elbe offers iconic backdrops for impossible viewpoints.

impossible places

Impossible Places runs on the same hardware as all other CosmoProducts booths. The locations are produced location-specifically before the season — real drone or archive shots of the landmark as background basis.
