Historically, the Royal Air Force used to go around recruitment fairs with a bunch of (analog) machines designed to test the hand/eye coordination of possible trainees -- use a couple of geared wheels to keep the dot on the moving target, for example. They gave up on this about a decade ago, because the average applicant for an air cadet slot now had better reflexes and hand-eye coordination than second world war fighter aces. (They might fail on the physical fitness requirement, but the average kid today is insanely good at keeping the gunsights on the target using a joystick compared to the average kid in the 1940s.)
