I'm wondering, is there any sort of screen-mirroring capabilities with KOReader? i.e. I want to be able to see the contents of my kobo on a window in my computer, connected by USB/Wifi/Bluetooth.

The idea is to use the Kobo Elipsa as a sort of virtual whiteboard, so that I can write on the Elipsa, but see its screen on the computer (and then share it over Zoom or something).

Is this :
* Currently possible with KOReader?
* Possible to implement as an app for KOReader if I were to code it myself?

I know coding, but I've never delved into the Kobo/KOReader internals or API, so I'm not sure if it has the capability to get the screen contents and send it to another device.
