Video streaming software with PTZ control?

Support Software & Applications
1

I’m occasionally videoing some speeches.
At an event last week there was another guy who did the same thing and he had some fascinating equipment:
He had two tiny ptz cameras (pan-tilt-zoom). On his mac he had a video mixer where he could control the two cameras, and mix them together, live. His mixer had preset positions for the cameras, so that with a click on his screen he could make the cameras rotate and zoom into preset areas.
Does anyone know of a software for linux with similar functionality?

Second, what would be the proper search term to find cameras to use for this purpose? When I search for PTZ I find surveillance cameras. They are huge compared to what this guy had. His cameras, including the 2-axis motorized foot, were smaller than a gopro!

Mini PTZ Conference cam - sx.nix.dk

fixed the link - somehow I broke it

That link did not work..

The closest I’ve found in regards to camera is the Emeet Pixy

This thing, however seems to require a software not available to linux, and it’s using USB connection, which makes it complicated to have cameras positioned different places in a room - they are restricted by the length of a usb cable.

Looks like there is a PTZ control plugin to OBS (Open broadcast studio).
What it requires from the cameras is still a mystery

I got information which software that other guy was using:
Wirecast Pro
