Could you build this?
Partial Building an Android touch pad UI is trivial, but real-time low-latency desktop mouse emulation via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth requires native OS input simulation and cross-device socket/HID communication.
What it would actually take: Requires an Android native client and a lightweight Windows desktop daemon (written in C++ or C#) communicating over raw UDP sockets or custom Bluetooth RFCOMM/HID protocols. The critical challenge is achieving sub-10ms input latency, jitter buffering, and smooth cursor physics using Windows user32 SendInput APIs without triggering antivirus false positives.
