Thomas Edison drew inspiration for the motion picture from various inventors and developments in the field of Photography and moving images, notably the work of Louis Le Prince and Eadweard Muybridge. Muybridge's sequential photographs of a galloping horse in the 1870s demonstrated the potential of capturing motion, while Le Prince's early film experiments laid foundational concepts for motion pictures. Edison's Kinetoscope, developed in the late 1880s, was influenced by these advancements and aimed to create a device for viewing moving images.
