Systems and apparatuses including alterable characteristics and methods of altering and coordinating such characteristics

An apparatus comprising:

• a receiver;
• a coating adapted to change between a first color and a second color different than the first color;
• a power source adapted to supply the coating with a first level of current and a second level of current, wherein the coating has the first color when supplied with the first level of current and has the second color when supplied with the second level of current;
• and
• a processor in communication with the receiver, the power source, and the coating;
• wherein the receiver is adapted to receive a signal and communicate the signal to the processor, and wherein the processor is configured to have the power source supply the coating with one of the first level of current and the second level of current based on the signal received by the receiver.

A system comprising:

• a first apparatus including
• a first receiver,
• a first power source,
• a first coating adapted to change color based on a level of current supplied to the first coating from the first power source, and
• a first processor in communication with the first receiver, the first power source, and the first coating;
• a second apparatus including
• a second receiver,
• a second power source,
• a second coating adapted to change color based on a level of current supplied to the second coating from the second power source, and
• a second processor in communication with the second receiver, the second power source, and the second coating;
• and
• a communication device including a processor and a transmitter, wherein the communication device is adapted to communicate with the first apparatus and the second apparatus to control the first coating and the second coating in a coordinated manner.

A system comprising:

• an apparatus including
• a receiver,
• a power source,
• a coating adapted to change color based on a level of current applied to the coating by the power source, and
• a processor in communication with the receiver, the power source, and the coating;
• and
• a venue communication device including a processor and a transmitter and adapted to communicate with the apparatus to change a color of the coating, wherein the venue communication device has a limited range of communication associated with a venue and communicates with the apparatus to change the color of the coating with the apparatus within the limited range of communication.

A system comprising:

• a communication device including
• a power source,
• a transmitter,
• a capturing device, and
• a processor in communication with the transmitter, the power source, and the capturing device, wherein the capturing device is adapted to capture a color of an object and transmit data associated with the captured color;
• and
• an apparatus including
• a receiver,
• an apparatus power source,
• a coating adapted to change color based on a level of current supplied by the apparatus power source, and
• a processor in communication with the receiver, the apparatus power source, and the coating, wherein the receiver is configured to receive the data transmitted by the communication device and the processor is configured to have the apparatus supply a level of current to the coating such that the coating is the same color as the captured color associated with the object.
