1. A system comprising:
a display assembly configured to display a plurality of paint color chips at a plurality of paint color chip locations, each paint color chip location having a divider tab;
at least one light-emitting diode (LED) array having a plurality of LEDs, wherein each LED of the plurality of LEDs is associated with a respective paint color chip location of the plurality of paint color chip locations and configured to illuminate the divider tab at the respective paint color chip location; and
an LED control circuit in communication with each LED of the plurality of LEDs and in communication with a computing device configured to determine a particular paint color chip of the plurality of paint color chips based on received input, determine a particular paint color chip location within the display assembly associated with the particular paint color chip, identify a particular LED of the plurality of LEDs associated with the particular paint color chip location, and transmit an activation signal to the LED control circuit;
wherein the LED control circuit is configured to receive the activation signal from the computing device and activate the particular LED to illuminate the divider tab located at the particular paint color chip location within the display assembly.
