Praxinoscope is a traditional animation devices that is an improvement of the zoetrope by inserting an inner mirror in the centre of the device, instead of peeking through the small area, audience could have a clear view of the reflection.
It is a effective device because it allows more audiences to watch at the same time; it has a better design to ease the watching in different angles and the images are less distorted. However, it is still depends on spinning by hand and one light source that the efficiency is still affected.
At this time, the demand of high quality visual amusement was increasing high and therefore people continue to invent various animating devices and improvement like praxinoscope in order to make the creativities and crazy ideas came true.
I especially like the beautiful design of the praxinoscope, it would definitely distract me from watching the moving image. This indicate how the designers still integrated history and future in their invention which I think the citizens today should know the importance of learning from the past.
