Therefore with the invention of a special camera that was able to photograph a large number of pictures rapidly and another device, which could show them at the same rate, it was evident that this new device should be called "bioscope". Consequently a device intended to "observe life".

In a fairly large advertisement of 22nd October 1899 Klagenfurter Zeitung wrote: "Bioskop ist eingetroffen" and narrates that the presentation will take place at Hotel Sandwirt where life-size pictures will be shown.
