photochromoscope (plural photochromoscopes)
- A device for giving shifting effects of color to a photograph. The unmounted print, made translucent, is illuminated from behind with colored light.
- A combination of three optical lanterns for projecting objects on a screen in natural colors.

Each image is given its own primary color, and these colors blend and reproduce the colors of the object.
