Does anybody know of any IR LED's that have a fast enough reaction time for 30 FPS, or of any other way I can make the camera image change every frame that i can track.

Thanks.
If you wanted the LED to be on one frame, and off the next, wouldn't you need to synchronize the camera and whatever is controlling the LED in some sort?
