In 1888, the inventor Thomas Edison, and his assistant William Dickson, set out to create a device that could record moving pictures. In 1890 they unveiled the Kinetograph, a motion picture camera, and later in 1892 they invented the kinetoscope, is a forerunner of the motion-picture film projector. In it, a strip of film was passed rapidly between a lens and an electric light bulb while the viewer peered through a peephole, and providing motion or cinema perspective(s).
Mutoscope
The Mutoscope is an early motion picture device, invented by W. K. L. Dickson and Herman Casler. Similar to Thomas Edison’s Kinetoscope, it did not project on a screen and provided viewing to only one person at a time.
