Trying to avoid confusion... 

I'm sure that you can use a tablet for a virtual keyboard and/or a
touchpad component of a desktop computer, but that's not what I'm 
asking about. 

I'm wondering if all you have is a tablet and big monitor. Of 
course what you see on the tablet screen can be sent to the 
monitor with a cable or wireless. 

This is my question... 

Can you use the tablet as a virtual keyboard and/or a touchpad 
while displaying the contents of the tablet, the GUI output part 
like windows and dialogs that we interact with, on a big monitor? 

The idea is to make use of the tablet touchscreen while using the 
big monitor as if it were connected to a PC. 

Let me know if that question is not clear and I will try to 
explain further. Links or even just keywords would be appreciated.
Preferably for Android, but curious to know if it's been done on
an iPad. 

Thanks.
