Triggering camera preset based on location of presentor

Is there a way to use a location of a presenter to trigger a camera switch with preset zoom and angle?
Ask is to use a camera trigger like what is used in Presenter Track to trigger a switch to a second camera and have that camera be zoomed in to a set area.  It is not going to be used to follow the presenter, but to instead show a group of products on a table they are wanting to show off.   Think unboxings / Selling products.  You walk up to the table and it will switch to the products instead of (or in addition to) the presenter.
This would be used with a Room Kit Pro and the Cisco PTZ 4K camera.

The camera presets bit is the easy bit - just define a new preset for each camera position.  You could trigger these via buttons on the Touch Navigator, but not automatically by moving around as you would like.   You could wire up some buttons at each of the locations (assuming you don't have a lot of them) to the GPIO pins, then use the status of those in a macro to trigger a preset.   Would require someone to then press a button (which you could place discretely) at each of the locations.  You may even be able to do it with some other external presence sensor too, but you'd have to work out what works best for your use case.
