A device or instrument that reflects or displays an image of oneself; a mirror or viewing apparatus for self-observation.
From Greek autos (self) + skopeein (to view or examine). Constructed term combining auto- with the common -scope suffix (as in microscope, telescope).
An autoscope is basically a sophisticated mirror—the word uses the same '-scope' ending as telescope (far-seeing) and microscope (small-seeing), but for 'self-seeing'!
