I'm a simple n00b, I just see a Samy Kamkar presentation and I just click it.

This is a great example of how a project can seem simple at first, but then “balloon” into something much more involved than you anticipated. This immediately reminded of of something Disney has done. They have IR mesh networked glowy Mickey ears that are synchronized for their nighttime shows. Here’s a video where a guy explains how he hacked it: ruclips.net/video/F6t_eoiNQdw/видео.html

They could have software demodulated the IR.
