Abstract: An article of clothing with an LED display is provided. The article of clothing includes a plurality of LEDs forming nomenclature that provides identifying information, such as a word or symbol. A strobing unit is connected to the display, such as through a flexible circuit board. The strobing unit provides one or more power signals that cause the LED display to generate strobed light, so that emergency workers can be readily identified by an observer even in darkness, rain, smoke, fog, or other conditions where visibility is limited.
