Interactive LED display device
First Claim
1. A light-emitting diode device, comprising:
- a housing, having a front cover;
at least one row of light-emitting diodes installed in the housing, wherein the row of light-emitting diodes is operative to rotate about a central axis of the housing, and the light-emitting diodes are selectively activated in response to an orientation of the light-emitting diodes to generate an illumination pattern observable from the front cover; and
a sound generating device built in the housing, the sound-generating device being operative to generate a sound coordinated with the illumination pattern.

Abstract
A toy, particularly an educational toy that has a light-emitting diode device attached thereto. Instead of a whole array of light-emitting diodes, the light-emitting diode device has only one or multiple cross rows of light-emitting diodes rotating about an axis. The light-emitting diode device is operative to generate a plurality of illumination patterns or images by selectively switching on/off the light-emitting diodes at a specific orientation. The light-emitting diode device further has a sound-generating device interactive with the light-emitting diodes. That is, the sound-generating device is operative to generate a sound to represent an audio form of the illumination patterns or images displayed by the light-emitting diodes.

24. A light-emitting diode device, comprising:
-
a light-generating device, comprising;
at least one row of light-emitting diodes operative to rotate about a central axis of the housing, wherein the light-emitting diodes are selectively switched on or off at an orientation to generate a predetermined illumination pattern; and
a first transmitter and a first receiver, the first transmitter being operative to transmit a first activate signal carrying information of the illumination pattern; and
a sound-generating device, comprising;
a speaker, the speaker being operative to generate a sound in response to the first activation signal; and
a second transmitter and a second receiver, wherein the second receiver being operative to receive the first activation signal to activate the speaker, and the second transmitter being operative to transmit a second activation signal carrying information of the sound to the first receiver. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26)
