Show Wii U Gamepad Video on Computer

controllerswii-u

I'm trying to find out if anyone has come up with a method of getting the Wii U gamepad video to show on a PC.
I've looked this up and found people playing PC games with the Wii U, but that's not what I am trying to do.

I want to duplicate what is on the Wii U Gamepad onto my computer. I would think this could be possible since it's already wireless.
