Thermochromic liquid crystal paint changes color with temperature variations, making it useful for temperature-sensitive applications like thermometers, mood rings, and temperature indicators.
Liquid crystalline state is a transtion phase between solid and liquid. It can be called a state of matter - it has its unique physical properties (anistropy of physical properties), which makes it different from solids or liquids.
No, water is not a liquid crystal. Liquid crystals are a distinct phase of matter that exhibit properties of both liquids and solids, with molecules that are ordered like a crystal but can still flow like a liquid. Water is a simple liquid composed of H2O molecules.
A mood ring is a ring which contains a thermochromic element, such as liquid crystal. The ring changes color in response to the body temperature of its wearer. The color is said, by some proponents, to indicate the emothional state of the wearer.

Liquid crystal is a state of matter that has fluid properties similar to a liquid and has a crystalline structure as well. Liquid crystal used in displays changes its optical properties when a voltage is applied to it. As the electrical field is applied, light is polarised in a different direction. Using a sheet of polarising material with it means that light will pass through or not depending on the electrical field. An LCD display uses thousands of cells to build an image. By adding red, green and blue filters, the crystals are able to build a full color image by controlling the amount of light of each color that passes through the LCD panel. LCDs don't produce any light by themselves so most LCD displays need a back light to produce an image. LCD televisions have used cold cathode tubes but are moving towards LED back lighting.

Some examples of liquid lasers are dye lasers, which use organic dyes dissolved in a solvent as the gain medium, and liquid crystal lasers, which use liquid crystal materials to create the gain necessary for laser emission. These liquid lasers have tunable emission wavelengths and can be used in various research and industrial applications.
Liquid Crystal Institute was created in 1965.
LCD is Liquid Crystal Display and LED is Light emitting diode.
