It's well-known that this can be done, see Bradski (1998).

I lately saw it "in action" in a video provided by YouTube user "xathria". Looked promising.

What I do here is to apply a simple threshold (video width or height divided by 20) to the rectangle's centroid deviation from the window centre. The resulting 4 commands are dispatched via the MS SendInput API (VK_LEFT, VK_RIGHT, VK_UP, VK_DOWN).

Works better than expected, but I still prefer my keyboard.
