ipad airplay should be able to do it...

as long as you can control the mouse remotely... i didn't look hard. i own zero apple products ever in my life.

i used something similar once to cast from ipad to a 4k tv for my parents, once. expect inordinate amount of input lag, unless they have improved it since. believe i tried googlecast? or some google version of "airplay"

all i did was google :

"screen cast from desktop to ipad"

i knew similar stuff existed, but wasn't sure if it went in opposite direction from device to ipad-like thing.

at worst you need to be in vicinity of laptop/desktop and have a wireless mouse near you.. again, input lag will be extremely annoying if they didn't improve it... move the mouse and it's delayed a second or longer... you can learn to guesstimate when to stop moving mouse and stop watchign screen at all for those decisions, lol.

if you can't control mouse, look for other similar apps... good chance it exists.
