[Lazarus] Tell me, does this application exist?

[Anthony Walter]

I was kicking around and idea related to pairing a multiple desktop
platforms with an Android tablet. Could you guys tell me if anyone has
designed an application like I am about to describe?

I am thinking about a two part application that pairs your desktop computer
with an Android tablet. The pairing allows users to use their Android
tablet as a live preview and drawing surface for applications running on
their desktop computer.

The intent is to provide better drawing and painting for desktop
applications such as Krita, Gimp, Inkscape, and other applications by
hosting a service on the desktop computer that forwards an image of the
drawing surface on the desktop computer to an Android tablet, and
translating touch or stylus strokes on the tablet to native commands in
Krita, Gimp, Inkscape or other desktop programs. Translated commands might
change the active layer, brush size, opacity, active tool (smear, clone
stamp, airbrush, and so on) as well as stroke data (drawing, erasing, and
such).

The part that is the desktop service would be designed to support a list of
specific applications such as Krita, Gimp, Inkscape and so on (obviously
this list could be expanded).

The part that is the Android tablet application would connect to the
desktop service and display what it is told by the desktop service, and
also forward stylus input to the desktop service.
