Connect iPad or iPhone to Pyxis?

Is there a path to using iPad or iPhone as a monitor for the Pyxis from the front usbc port?
Thanks!

I am using the "raven-eye" from my DJI RS4 Pro gimble so I can view video on my phone or iPad. You just need a supported USB to HDMI adapter and an HDMI to HDMI mini adapter, These are the ones I am using from Amazon

I'm not allowed to post URLs because I am new to the forums, so here is the text description for searching Amazon.

* 8K Mini HDMI to HDMI Adapter (2 Pack), HDMI Female to Mini HDMI Male HDMI 2.1 Bidirectional Connector, Gold-Plated Plugs, Supports 8K@60Hz,4K@120Hz, HDR 3D, for Raspberry Pi Zero, Camera, Monitor

* Highwings USB C to HDMI Cable 3ft (4K@60Hz),USB 3.1 Type C to HDMI 2.0 Cord, [Thunderbolt 3/4 Compatible] for iPhone 15 Pro/Max, MacBook Pro/Air 2023, iPad Pro, Surface Book 2, Galaxy S23

I tried a USB to HDMI adapter that didn't have a cable attached, but it didn't work so I found this other one in a youtube video for the Pyxis and it worked fine, but has a 3ft cord which I wrapped around my microphone mount.

I do plan on moving to a regular monitor when the Pixyis monitor is released and will just use the raveneye when I need a remote monitor.
