Abstract
A light emitting diode (LED) display system contains an LED array driven by an LED driver. The LED array contains a plurality of LEDs configured to emit invisible lights and a plurality of color LEDs configured to emit visible lights. The two types of LED can be packaged into a hybrid LED unit. LEDs emitting invisible lights can be IR LEDs and/or UV LEDs, such that an exemplary hybrid LED unit may contain one or more R, G, and B LEDs and one or more IR LED and UV LED. The LED array can be arranged in a common cathode configuration or a common anode configuration. Using an infrared code reader, one may pinpoint the locations of IR LEDs in the LED array.
