Methods and Apparatus for Adaptive Interaction with Remote Devices Methods and apparatus for adaptively interacting with remote devices via a separate user device are disclosed. The user device can configure a user interface (UI) for interacting with the remote device on the basis of received device information associated with the remote device, the UI including one or more UI elements for controlling the user device to interact with the remote device. The device information defines one or more types of interaction between the user device and the remote device, and comprises a script for converting user input into an interaction request capable of being understood by the remote device. In response to user input relating to one of the one or more UI elements, the user device is caused to perform the associated type of interaction with the remote device. This approach enables the UI to be adapted according to the particularly types of interaction that are supported by the connected remote device. Local and remote discovery methods for obtaining the device information are also disclosed.
