Traditional CCTV is a passive tool; it records footage that you might look at after a crime has already been committed. In a quiet coastal village like Duporth, where Devon & Cornwall Police have vast areas to patrol, you cannot rely on a reactive system. scOS is proactive. Using our MotionX technology, the system understands the difference between 'motion' (like a seagull or a swaying tree) and 'important activity' (like a person scouting your windows). It doesn't require you to set up complex zones; it automatically learns your property boundaries. When it detects a genuine threat, it doesn't just record—it acts, using lights and voice warnings to stop intruders in their tracks.

Yes, scOS is highly flexible and brand-agnostic. It is designed to work with almost any professional-grade wired IP camera system, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If your Duporth home already has cameras, our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate them, instantly adding AI brains to your existing hardware. We prefer wired systems over wireless ones because they are far more reliable in coastal environments and cannot be defeated by the Wi-Fi jammers that many modern burglars use. Our professional UK-based installers will perform a full assessment of your current setup during the 4-6 hour installation process to ensure everything is optimised for scOS.

scOS uses three distinct layers of AI-driven deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your habits and mimics them when you're away, making your Duporth home look lived-in by intelligently controlling lights and sounds. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies intruders even if they are trying to hide their face or silhouette. Third is Active Intervention: if someone enters your property, scOS triggers external lights and uses IoT speakers to deliver clear, escalating voice warnings. This immediate, autonomous response is designed to make an intruder feel 'watched' and exposed, forcing them to leave before they can cause any damage.

We take data privacy very seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your video data is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. We never sell your data to third parties. Our system uses a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub handles most of the AI processing locally on your property. This ensures maximum speed and privacy. Data is only sent to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced analysis or to allow you to view your cameras via our app. You have total control over your recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks, providing a secure record for you and the authorities.

A video doorbell is a consumer gadget that only monitors your front door. It’s reactive and often misses activity happening just a few feet away. scOS is a professional-grade home intelligence system that protects your entire property. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from ever reaching your porch. It monitors your boundaries, identifies suspicious vehicles with DVLA recognition, and uses active deterrents to stop crime before it happens. For a home in Duporth, scOS offers the kind of comprehensive, 24/7 protection that a simple doorbell camera simply cannot match.

Duporth is a beautiful location, but coastal air can be harsh on electronics. Unlike many wireless 'smart' cameras that rely on batteries and plastic housings, scOS is built around professional-grade, wired hardware. Our installations use high-quality cabling and weather-resistant components designed to withstand the salt air and Cornish weather. By choosing a wired system over wireless, you ensure that your security remains functional and reliable year-round, regardless of the conditions on the coast.

Many properties in Duporth are second homes or holiday lets that remain empty for parts of the year. scOS is the perfect solution for these properties. Our Presence Simulation feature is specifically designed to make a vacant home appear occupied, mimicking the natural patterns of a resident. Furthermore, because scOS is proactive, it can handle threats autonomously while you are miles away. If the system detects an intruder, it will intervene and alert you immediately via the app, allowing you to check the live feed and contact Devon & Cornwall Police if necessary.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that makes managing your security effortless. Instead of spending your evening reviewing hours of footage, you can simply ask your system questions like, 'Has anyone been in the garden today?' or 'What time did the cleaners arrive?' The Director will provide a concise summary of all relevant activity. It’s like having a digital security guard for your Duporth home that you can talk to at any time, ensuring you’re always informed without the hassle of manual monitoring.
