Start with a silhouette of a naked dancing lady, turn on the current, and... Tada! A naked dancing lady! This could be ideal for strip clubs.

These doors are filled with an inert gas that changes in opacity when you pass a current through it. I guess the benefit of this is its flexibility.

The idea was that glass panes could be made with hollow channels running through them. Because the inside surface of the channels are frosted the window pane would appear opaque in its "normal" state. However, once water (or some other clear liquid) was pumped into the channels, the pane would become clear. Certainly not as high tech as an LCD curtain, but a cool idea nonetheless.
