who invented the zöopraxiscope which projected still photographs in rapid succession
Zoopraxiscope The zoopraxiscope is an early device for displaying motion pictures. Created by photographic pioneer Eadweard Muybridge in 1879, it may be considered the first movie projector. The zoopraxiscope projected images from rotating glass disks in rapid succession to give the impression of motion. The stop-motion images were initially painted onto the glass, as silhouettes. A second series of discs, made in 1892â€“1894, used outline drawings printed onto the discs photographically, then colored by hand. Some of the animated images are highly complex, featuring multiple combinations of sequences of animal and human movement.
Daguerreotype Invented by Louis-Jacques-MandÃ© Daguerre and introduced worldwide in 1839,[4][5][6] daguerreotype was almost completely superseded by 1860 with new, less expensive processes yielding more readily viewable images. During the past few decades, there has been a small revival of daguerreotypy among photographers interested in making artistic use of early photographic processes.
