Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records what happened but doesn't stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. Using our MotionX technology, it identifies 'important activity'—specifically human threats—while ignoring wildlife, wind, and shadows. It doesn't require you to set up complex motion masks because the AI automatically understands your property boundaries. While standard systems leave you with footage to show the Sussex Police after a break-in, scOS intervenes the moment a threat is detected to prevent the crime from occurring.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our UK-based installation team can usually transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence AI network in just 4 to 6 hours. We install an Intelligence Hub that processes your camera feeds locally, adding our advanced MotionX detection and proactive deterrent features to your current setup without needing to replace your hardware.

We use a three-tier deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking your internal activity patterns—essential for the large, detached homes in Ashurst Wood. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders even if they are disguised. Third, if someone enters your property, the system triggers an escalating response: automatic lighting followed by clear, AI-generated voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This ensures any intruder knows they have been detected and that the property is actively defended.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. Initial processing happens locally on your Intelligence Hub, and only critical events are escalated to the cloud. You retain full ownership and control of your data, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks. We never sell your personal information or footage to third parties, ensuring your home life remains private.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and often only alerts you once someone is already there. scOS provides comprehensive intelligence for your entire property. It detects threats at your boundary, long before they reach your door. For the larger plots and gardens often found in Ashurst Wood, this 'perimeter-first' approach is far more effective at preventing crime than a simple doorbell camera that only sees a small fraction of your home.

Ashurst Wood is surrounded by the High Weald, meaning gardens are often visited by deer, foxes, and badgers. Traditional motion-sensing CCTV would trigger constant false alarms. However, scOS uses MotionX technology, which is specifically trained to ignore animals and focus only on 'important activity'—human movement. This means you won't be bothered by alerts every time a fox crosses your lawn, but you will be notified instantly if a person approaches.

Property crime in Ashurst Wood is exceptionally low, but this can make the village a target for professional thieves who look for high-value homes with minimal security. scOS ensures you don't become a target by providing a high-tech deterrent that makes your home the least attractive option. By proactively deterring intruders with voice warnings and presence simulation, you maintain the safety of your home and the peace of the village.

Yes, scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition. This is particularly useful for identifying vehicles that may be 'casing' the village or those that don't belong to residents. The system can flag cars with cloned plates or those that have been seen multiple times in a suspicious context. You can ask the scOS Director, 'What cars have been on the driveway today?' for an instant report, providing an extra layer of protection for your property.
