Android: Tracking mouse pointer movement

Assuming that I am using a generic mouse, is it possible to track the X and Y coordinates of the mouse pointer in android?

What is pointer in Mobile?

Pointer capture is a feature available in Android 8.0 (API level 26) and later that provides such control by delivering all mouse events to a focused view in your app.

You need a OnGenericMotionListener:

OnGenericMotion(...., MotionEvent me) {
if (me.getToolType(0) == MotionEvent.TOOL_TYPE_MOUSE) {

}

api 14+ needed [confirmed] Found me a tablet with usb mouse and can confirm this works for mouse movement. You WILL get flooded with messages, so simple operations or sleeping should be considered.
