Setting cursor coordinates to iPad coordinates?

Question

Is there a way to make it so when the user touches the iPad that it makes location where the user touches the iPad the same as where cursor is on the computer?

Answer 1

For the basic question, yes it is possible. Take a look at the various VNC clients out there.

If you're wanting to implement this yourself, you'll need to get the coordinates on the iPad's screen (shouldn't be that hard), then using a network connection, send that information to a program running on the mac, and that program will take the coordinates (either as an absolute X,Y position, or as a % of the position on the screen) and move the mouse on the OS X machine.
