Essentially small images sent OTA that allow stations to "Brand" themselves on automotive receivers.

So a bug in the HD Radio app which has some very poor process architecture/sandboxing if it can take over the whole interface.

Good concept for a Black Mirror episode

I think they can also do useful things like traffic maps and album art over nrsc5

Goatse other people's radios is a terrible idea.

Advanced data services provide broadcasters with the ability to transmit information that may be unrelated to MPS, SIS or SPS. These services can carry any form and content that can be expressed as a data file or a data stream, including audio services. Examples of such services include (i) visual effects associated with MPS, SIS, or SPS services; (ii) multimedia presentations of stock, news, weather, and entertainment programming including audio, text and images; (iii) broadcast updates to in-vehicle systems; (iv) local storage of content for time shifting and later replay; (v) targeted advertising; (vi) traffic updates and information for use with navigation systems; and (vii) subscription or free-but-limited-access services using conditional access.
