Original Abstract Submitted

An extended Reality (XR) display system includes a Light Emitting Diode (LED) display controller, and a Light Emitting Diode (LED) near-eye display element operatively coupled to the LED display driver. The LED near-eye display element includes one or more motors and an LED array operably connected to the one or more motors. During operation, the LED display driver receives video data including a rendered virtual object of an XR experience and generates LED array control signals based on the video data, the LED array control signals causing one or more LEDs of the LED array to be energized in a sequence. The LED display driver also generates synchronized motor control signals and simultaneously communicates the LED array control signals to the LED array and the synchronized motor control signals to the one or more motors causing the LED near-eye display element to display the rendered virtual object.
