The Kinetoscope is an early motion picture exhibition device.
The Kinetoscope was designed for films to be viewed by one individual at a time through a peephole viewer window at the top of the device.
The Kinetoscope was not a movie projector but introduced the basic approach that would become the standard for all cinematic projection before the advent of video, by creating the illusion of movement by conveying a strip of perforated film bearing sequential images over a light source with a high-speed shutter.
