One year after the first Cine NIC came onto the market, another company from Barcelona unveiled this new projector, which was designed to capitalise on the initial success of the Cine NIC. Unlike the original device, in the Isuar Cinema the images were animated with a system based on the mutoscope, a pre-cinema device used to make images move.
