IR Interference

We were discussing the IR sensor today. More specifically, how to build a reflecting rig that allows 360 degree control. Then we came to the topic of interference. We understand that we can use a tube to shoot our signal in a straighter line, but what happens if another team's remote has the same codes ours does? What happens if an audience member builds and brings an ultra tv-b-gone??

More though, multiple teams having the same codes, and using the same buttons.. I think first should give us all remotes at the competitions! Or do they have some other plan?
