Abstract
In some embodiments, techniques are provided for extending the functionality of a receiving unit which is configured to express a state during an event. In some embodiments, a receiving unit configured to receive a first set of transmissions during an event from one or more transmitting units and express a state in response may also be configured to receive a second set of transmissions from other components at a time other than during the event and express a state in response to receiving the second set of transmissions.
