There was a device in the 90s that claimed to let you do this, LGR did a video on it (it didn't work shockingly)

Atari tried to do this in the '80s, but it never went anywhere.

I had that thing. It did "work;" just not how you'd expect and not very well. Kinda like a PowerGlove. Games that didn't require much movement were playable; but I got it because I figured I should be able to aim way faster in Counter-Strike with my mind than with my hands on a mouse.
