Try taking a look at this theard https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/6469 ... k-beta-01/
I don't own the hardware myself so I can't confirm that it works.

Edit: if you are able to generate an event you will be able to detect it in AHK. By event I mean either something is sent to the computer or something changes on the computer.

How I would make it:

1. Make the arduino to send position to the serial monitor, for example:
x450
y500
or:
x450y500M/C,L/R ;move/click, left/right

2. check if window "Serial Monitor" exist
https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/WinExist.htm

3. using ahk built-in application Active Window Info obtain class of control in which text with position is stored in com monitor

4. then in loop periodically parse the string using some string managment commands and save it into variables
https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/IfInString.htm
https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/StringSplit.htm
and so on, depending what other data will you be sending

5. use mouse commands to manipulate your cursor
