Could you build this?
Partial Standard screen capture is common, but smooth automatic camera framing and real-time zoom/pan interpolation around mouse/keyboard events in native desktop video pipelines requires non-trivial OS-level graphics processing.
What it would actually take: This requires a native desktop application (Swift/Objective-C on macOS via ScreenCaptureKit, or C++/Rust with DirectX/Windows Graphics Capture on Windows). The hard part is low-level event hooking to capture input coordinates synchronized with video frames, computing dynamic virtual camera bounding boxes with smoothing algorithms (spring/bezier physics), and running GPU-accelerated video compositing/encoding (AVFoundation / FFmpeg).
