Abstract

In an embodiment, an Internet of Things (IoT) controller receives information from IoT devices over an IoT communications interface. The IoT controller establishes a wireless media presentation session with a user device with the IoT controller acting as a source and the user device acting as a sink. The IoT controller generates a displayable IoT control interface for the IoT devices and sends the displayable IoT control interface to a user device within a media stream of the wireless media presentation session. The user device displays the displayable IoT control interface and sends the IoT controller user input feedback over a user input feedback channel. The IoT controller determines whether to modify one or more settings associated with the at least one IoT device based upon the user input feedback.
