Remote viewing and control of Apple products

Technology to the rescue again, and I'm impressed this time. I have always been a Windows man, I got used to the plethora of utilities and programs readily available everywhere for just about every need you might have, and with Dragon being the best, and unfortunately, somewhat only full service voice program that totally controls the operating system including mouse functions and pressing keys and combinations of keys on the keyboard, in addition to voice dictation, I just never seriously looked at trying Macintosh computers. I have always heard rumors of something called Parallels which supposedly allows you to run the Windows version of things like Dragon, but it never seemed fully baked and totally usable full-time in the Macintosh ecosystem. But, something changed recently where I wanted to give it a go. That thing being iPhone mirroring. I love VNC and other technologies that allow you to operate a different computer or device remotely. Software like this allows me to use my mouse and my voice through Dragon to remotely control other Windows computers on my network, and remotely off-site using things like TeamViewer. However, these things really don't work with Apple products. Even android phones and tablets can be controlled remotely through TeamViewer, with full functionality with the mouse and somewhat with Dragon typing things. Finally, as of late last year sometime, Apple finally enabled screen mirroring and control of iPhones. But, ONLY through Mac machines. Okay, not ideal, but getting somewhere. But how do I operate the Mac without a friend typing and moving the mouse physically for me? I know there are accessibility options to help with some of this stuff, but nothing would match the freedom and ability I have doing it remotely through my Windows machine. I didn't think this was possible. I was wrong. I don't know how long this device has been on the market, but I am pretty salty I am just now finding out about it, and is less than $100. It is called Comet and it is a Remote KVM device. I know, I didn't know what that meant either, but it is a simple box which plugs directly into your router using the included network cable, and features a HDMI input and a USB C port. All you have to do is plug the HDMI output of the Mac into this magic box (included), and attach the included USB C cable to one of the ports on the Mac. That's it, no software, nothing else is needed. No subscription necessary, and all you have to do is load up a browser on any network computer and type in the IP address of the Comet (or the URL provided in the manual) and after creating a simple password the magic happens. Without any fuss or headaches or configuration, whatever the Mac doing, will appear on your browser. Your keyboard and mouse work just like you were there in front of the Mac, and full control just happens. Since it doesn't depend on software of any kind, and simply appears to the remote computer as a display monitor and standard keyboard and mouse, it works in any mode that the Mac is in, even video. Sound is also transferred to the remote computer, and you can even allow your microphone to be used. I don't know how this magic happens, but this gives so much freedom no matter what I want to control. I imagine this would work on any device that has HDMI output, I'm thinking iPhone directly, a Roku streaming box, or maybe even a fire stick, though navigation might be a little tricky. But, through the Mac, I can now control my iPhone using the iPhone mirroring functionality. Technology to the rescue!
