Model: Tapo C520WS  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.7

It would be amazing if the camera had some sort of "home" position where after it tracks someone to another location, instead of staying at said location if it could automatically move back to a set position after the movement was captured.

Hi,
Usually, the camera will rotate to the original position where you enable the motion tracking feature after it tracks an event and not detect a new event after 30 seconds.

 

For your request, you can set the Smart Action>Automation feature on the Tapo app for a try.
How to create Smart Action (automation or a shortcut) of my Tapo devices?
Trigger:

when the Tapo C520WS detects an event
Action: 
1) Delay the set time(such as 1 or 2  minute)
2) Pan & Tilt Control>rotate to the specific viewpoint.

 

Best Regards
