For example, I somehow connected a device to my computer and it has some inputs and outputs on it (like buttons, lights etc.).
Assume this device has a dll or sth. like that for software developers.

How can I, for example, get the velocity value of my car in need for speed to change the lights on my device?
Or, how can I use the buttons to set the camera angle (not standart camera positions that the game allows with a key (like 'C') but I want to change the x,y,z of the camera and x,y,z of the camera target.)?

The device and need for speed are just examples but I want to get some data from a game and set some values to the game (by force).

Maybe some day I build a better device than keyboard and mouse (or wheel) 😀

Is it possible? How should I search for it? Where should I start?
