Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Chard
Traditional CCTV is passive; it records a crime but does nothing to prevent it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to detect 'important activity' while ignoring false alarms like animals or swaying trees. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw 'zones,' scOS automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, it doesn't just record—it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder before they enter your home.
Absolutely. scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, such as Hikvision, Dahua, and Axis. If you already have a camera system at your Chard property, our Intelligence Hub can usually be integrated to provide the AI 'brain' your current setup is missing. Our professional UK-based installers will evaluate your existing cameras during the setup to ensure they are compatible with our high-performance MotionX detection.
scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent system. First, 'Presence Simulation' makes your home look occupied by mimicking your natural activity patterns inside the house. Second, our MotionX AI identifies intruders at your boundary, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third, the system initiates an escalating response: instant illumination followed by clear voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive approach is designed to make criminals flee before they ever reach your door.
We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring your footage remains private and is never sold to third parties. Your Intelligence Hub processes data locally for maximum speed and privacy, only escalating to the cloud for secure remote access. You can view your 24/7 recordings from the last 14 days at any time via our encrypted app.
A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often easily disabled by WiFi jammers. scOS is a professional, hardwired system that protects your entire property. While a doorbell is reactive—telling you someone is there—scOS is proactive, detecting threats at your boundary and taking action to stop them. It provides comprehensive security that a simple doorbell camera simply cannot match, especially in areas with higher property crime.
With property crime rates in Chard being higher than the national average, proactive protection is essential. scOS doesn't just watch; it acts. By identifying suspicious behaviour early and using voice deterrents, it prevents your home from becoming another statistic. The system's ability to recognise 'important activity' means you won't be desensitised by false alarms, so when you get an alert, you know it's something that requires your attention.
Yes, scOS includes 'Covered Face Detection.' If the AI spots someone on your property wearing a balaclava, mask, or hood to hide their identity, it immediately flags this as suspicious. The system will then trigger its escalating response, using lights and voice warnings to let the intruder know they are being monitored by an intelligent system, which is usually enough to make them leave immediately.
scOS Director is our conversational AI that lets you talk to your security system. You can ask natural questions like, 'Director, was there anyone near the back gate today?' or 'Show me any suspicious vehicles from last night.' It saves you from having to manually review hours of footage by providing instant, intelligent summaries of what has happened on your property, giving you total control with minimal effort.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
