Liquid crystal is used with full success, mainly in breast cancer detection, skin disease, scrotal disease, and veterinarian experimentation, in addition to industrial quality control (mechanical and electronic circuitry testing). The importance of the results of these uses demonstrates the necessity of improving the spatiothermal resolution and isothermic possibilities. This work introduces new manufacturing processes of encapsulated liquid crystal mixtures selected for specific characteristics. The coating of the liquid crystal-Is explained, the accuracy measurement and testing are exposed, with all the new applications possible due to the high quality of the product. Comparison of special cases of old sheets and new ones are detailed. New potential uses and developments are discussed.
