That is not a monitor. A monitor uses standards related to the video output of the source and does not depend on support software to work. Explicitly: a monitor does not work "on Win12.3"; you connect it to the graphics card of an Amiga and it works all the same.

You can probably obtain exactly the same effect of the Dasung with an Onyx Boox plus some clever software (e.g. the Onyx experimental quick remote desktop solution - which I presume is also what is seen in action in the video mentioned above).

One of the sources - use of micro-USB, need for a driver - is this blog.
The first model of Dasung monitor uses USB while the next generation (Dasung Pro) uses HDMI. On this page you'll find further information
