PC-to-PC over USB/Ethernet – Virtual Docking Station

Hello guys,

Please feel free to tell me if it`s not the wight sub for it.

I am trying to build a PC to PC connection over USB or Thunderbolt. I have professional experience in Software, but I am an electronics amateur .

The basic use case would be plugging my laptop to my PC, thus replacing the need for RDP. My laptop would be the slave and my PC the master. ( although I do not know if that terminology is right for those protocols).

The master pc will then receive:

– Video Feed (HDMI)

– Input controls (mouse&kbd)

– File Server

– etc…

I know that USB/Thunderbolt supports HDMI/USB/Ethernet. Can it support the 3 protocols at the same time? Worst case scenario, i will create host software that would relay all of that over TCP/IP (like synergy/vnc)

What i`m building is basically a virtual docking station. Any ideas?
