Overhead projector in operation, with a transparency being flashed. A transparency, also known variously as a viewfoil or foil (from the French word "feuille" or sheet), or viewgraph, is a thin sheet of transparent flexible material, typically polyester (historically cellulose acetate), onto which figures can be drawn.
Opaque projectors are typically used to project images of book pages, drawings, mineral specimens, leaves, etc. They have been produced and marketed as artists' enlargement tools to allow images to be transferred to surfaces such as prepared canvas, or for lectures and discourses. Small episcope for home use
Therefore, the transparency is placed face up (toward the mirror and focusing lens), in contrast with a 35mm slide projector or film projector (which lack such a mirror) where the slide's image is non-reversed on the side opposite the focusing lens. A related invention for enlarging transparent images is the solar camera.
a snow effect slide can add snow to another slide (preferably of a winter scene) by moving a flexible loop of material pierced with tiny holes in front of one of the lenses of a double or triple lantern. [65] Mechanical slides with abstract special effects include: Slide with a fantoccini trapeze artist and a chromatrope border design (c. 1880)
A slide show in Germany. A slide show, or slideshow, is a presentation of a series of still images on a projection screen or electronic display device, typically in a prearranged sequence.

A slide is a single page of a presentation. A group of slides is called a slide deck. A slide show is an exposition of a series of slides or images in an electronic device or on a projection screen. Before personal computers, they were 35 mm slides viewed with a slide projector [1] or transparencies viewed with an overhead projector.
A 1960 slide projector. A slide projector is an optical device for projecting enlarged images of photographic slides onto a screen.Many projectors have mechanical arrangements to show a series of slides loaded into a special tray sequentially.
In photography, reversal film or slide film is a type of photographic film that produces a positive image on a transparent base. [1] Instead of negatives and prints , reversal film is processed to produce transparencies or diapositives (abbreviated as "diafilm" or "dia" in some languages like German , Romanian or Hungarian ).
