Several products already exist for this purpose, including Duet Display, one of the Splashtop products (can't remember which). I'm sure there are others.

It made reading this article a bit off-putting because they seem to imagine they were the sole bearers of such a product; they were not and never have been.

I also used a VNC client to turn my iPhone into a trackpad my mac... slightly unrelated but no notable latency and similar tech used.
