Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records your home being burgled but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system powered by MotionX, our revolutionary AI that identifies 'important activity' with zero false alarms. Unlike standard systems that rely on easily-fooled motion masks, scOS automatically understands your property boundaries and reacts the moment a stranger steps onto your land. It uses external IoT speakers and automated lighting to challenge intruders before they reach your windows. It’s not just a camera; it’s an active deterrent that works to prevent the crime from ever happening, giving Dunnington residents true peace of mind.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can integrate with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup and connect it to our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing 'dumb' cameras into a sophisticated AI network. You’ll gain all the benefits of scOS—like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents—without the need for a total hardware overhaul. It’s the smartest way to upgrade your Dunnington home security while making use of your previous investments.

scOS uses a three-tier approach to stop criminals in their tracks. The first layer is 'Presence Simulation,' which uses AI to mimic your internal lighting and activity patterns, making your home look occupied even when you're out. If an intruder does approach, our MotionX AI detects them instantly—even if they are wearing a mask or hood—and triggers the second layer: automatic light response. The final layer is our escalating voice deterrent, delivered via external IoT speakers. This tells the intruder they are being monitored by an intelligent system, which is far more effective at causing them to flee than a simple, ignored alarm bell.

Privacy is at the core of scOS. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. Unlike many doorbell and camera brands, we never sell your data or use it for advertising. Your Intelligence Hub processes most information locally before escalating to the cloud, ensuring lightning-fast response times and maximum privacy. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks. In Dunnington, you can rest easy knowing your home's security data stays within the UK and under your exclusive control.

A video doorbell only monitors a tiny fraction of your property and often only alerts you once someone is already at your door. In contrast, scOS provides full-perimeter intelligence. It detects threats at the edge of your property, long before they reach your entrance. While a doorbell might show you a video of a break-in, scOS uses active intervention—like lights and voice warnings—to stop the break-in from occurring. For Dunnington homes with larger driveways or multiple entry points, a doorbell is simply insufficient. scOS offers a professional-grade, AI-driven ecosystem that protects your entire property, not just your front door.

Dunnington is an affluent village, and high-value cars are often a target for 'keyless' theft. scOS features advanced DVLA vehicle recognition that identifies every car entering your property. It checks registrations against the DVLA database and can flag suspicious or cloned plates. If an unrecognised vehicle enters your driveway at 3 AM, scOS can alert you immediately and trigger deterrents. This provides North Yorkshire Police with high-quality evidence, including the exact make, model, and plate of any vehicle involved in suspicious activity, significantly increasing the chances of recovery.

Dunnington residents often travel into York or Leeds for work and leisure, leaving homes empty for long periods. Our 'Presence Simulation' is designed specifically for this. It doesn't just turn lights on and off on a timer; it learns and mimics your actual behaviour patterns, making your home look truly lived-in. Whether you're at the office or on holiday, scOS ensures your property never looks like an easy target. Combined with our proactive AI monitoring, you can enjoy your time away from home knowing that scOS is actively guarding your property.

While Dunnington is a safe and desirable place to live, its reputation for affluence makes it a target for professional burglars who travel from further afield. These criminals often 'case' properties before striking. scOS's MotionX AI is designed to recognise suspicious patterns of behaviour, such as someone loitering or covering their face. By identifying these threats early and using voice deterrents to let the criminal know they've been spotted, scOS breaks the cycle of a burglary before it even begins, ensuring Dunnington remains the safe community you love.
