Zoetrope
William George Horner had created the zoetrope in 1834.
The zeotrope can be viewed by several people at the same time.The sequence of pictures depicting phases of motion is on a paper strip, for viewing this is placed against the inner surface of the lower part of an open-topped metal drum, the upper part of which is provided with a vertical viewing slit across from each picture.
Phenakistoscope
Joseph Plateau had created the phenakistoscope in 1831.
Phenakistoscope had two discs, one with slits and one with pictures. Some phenakistosopes only had one disc with slits in it, so you world have to stand in front of a mirror and look through the slits to see the animation.

The phenakistoscope is used on a spinning disc attached vertically to a handle. Around the disc's center is a series of drawings showing phases of the animation and a series of equally spaced radial slits. You would spin the disc and look through the moving slits at the disc's reflection in the mirror, the scanning of the slits across the reflected images kept the from blurring together, so the images would appear as a single moving picture.
Kinetoscope
Thomas Edison and William Dickson created the kinetoscope in 1897.
The Kinetoscope was an early motion picture exhibition device that was designed for films to be viewed by one person at a time, looking through the peephole window at the top of the Kinetoscope.
In the Kinetoscope, a strip of film is passed rapidly between the lens and the light bulb. Behind the peephole was a spinning wheel with a narrow slit that acted like a shutter, allowing a quick view of each of the frames passing in front of the shutter every second.

Mutoscope
Invented by Winsor McCay, later patented by Herman Casler in 1894.
Mutoscope was also an early motion picture device, it is cheaper and similar to the Kinetoscope. It worked the same way as flip book, instead of being a booklet, the cards were attached to a circular core. The cards were lit electrically, also the reel was driven by an hand crank. Only one person at a time could look through it by looking through the enclosed lens whilst turning the hand crank.
