Hello Theodore,
The most comprehensive sources that I have found accessible for free
on the internet, addressing both LED uses for lightening and other
applications -- which is your focus -- are two Global Watch Mission
reports -- one about US and the other one about Japan led industries
(the one about Japan is more comprehensive about the uses of LEDs
other than lightening)

You're not interested in lightening, but anyway, there is a very good
report on this part of the LED industry (which is still the more
voluminous, although the segment you're focusing in seems to be less
mature, hence, the one that might be about to experience the highest
*relative* growth, i.e., it might not reach the volumes of lightening
LED industry, but the latter is already more mature). The
abovementioned report is: Light Emitting Diodes for Lighting
Applications, by MarketResearch.com

Now, if you're willing to invest on fee basis reports, you have the
option of Technology Tracking, which offers you the possibility of
purchasing individual records for $250:

There is also the Intertech's report The future of LEDs - strategic
ten years forecast, which is really expensive ($6475) - See brochure
and order form at: http://www.intertechusa.com/pdf/Future_of_LEDs.pdf
As to LED applications other than lightening, besides the ones very
thoroughly depicted in the Global Watch Mission reports above
mentioned, you can visit articles at LED Magazine, such as:
