Can I make my mid-2010 Mac-mini display mirror my mid-2012 macbook pro?

I have a mid-2010 Mac mini hooked up to a Sony Bravia smart tv via HDMI as a dsiplay. I am searching if there is a way to have this display wirelessly mirror the screen of my mid 2012 mac book pro, without buying an Apple TV. Both macs are running Mavericks and are on the same wi-fi network.

Thank you everyone for any assistance.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2), software update

I do not know. Your Mini does not support mirroring to an Apple TV:

A supported Mac

AirPlay Mirroring in OS X takes advantage of the hardware capabilities of recent Macs to deliver high frame rates while maintaining optimal system performance. The following Mac models support AirPlay Mirroring::

iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
Mac Pro (Late 2013)
