In an indoor–outdoor thermometer based on a conventional liquid-in-glass thermometer, the stem of the outdoor thermometer is connected to the bulb by a long, flexible or semi-rigid capillary. The temperature scale is marked on the stem as usual. However, the temperature that is actually measured is the temperature at the bulb. [1]

The resolution of liquid crystal sensors is in the 0.1 °C (0.2 °F) range. Disposable liquid crystal thermometers have been developed for home and medical use. For example if the thermometer is put onto someone's forehead, it will change colour depending on the temperature of the person's body. There are two stages in the liquid crystals:
