scOS is a proactive AI security system, a significant step up from traditional, passive CCTV. Most CCTV systems just record footage, but scOS uses MotionX technology to understand what it's seeing. MotionX focuses on 'important activity,' meaning it can distinguish between a neighbour walking their dog and someone lingering suspiciously near your property. It doesn't require motion masks and won't be triggered by wind or animals. When scOS detects a genuine threat, it takes action—using lights and voice warnings to deter the intruder—rather than just recording the event for you to find later.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. Our professional UK-based installation team will assess your existing cameras during their visit to ensure they can be integrated with our Intelligence Hub. This means you can upgrade your Fernhill Heath home to the latest AI security technology without having to replace your current camera hardware, providing a powerful and cost-effective security boost.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which makes your home look occupied by mimicking your normal activity patterns when you're away. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies people even if they are trying to hide their identity with hoods or masks. Third is Active Intervention, where the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and triggers automatic lighting if someone enters your property boundary. This escalating response is designed to stop criminals in their tracks by making it clear that they have been detected and that the property is actively protected.

We take your privacy very seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all our data centres are located in the UK. Your video is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for speed and privacy, with only necessary data being sent to our secure UK cloud for advanced processing. We are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your data. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely through our app at any time.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only covers a small area around your front door. scOS is a proactive, whole-property intelligence system. While a doorbell might show you someone at the door, scOS monitors your entire property boundary and uses AI to detect and deter threats before they even reach your house. Additionally, scOS uses professional wired connections, which are much more reliable than the Wi-Fi used by doorbells, which can be easily disrupted by signal jammers.

Fernhill Heath's property crime rate is 11.36, which is well below the national average, but it's important not to become complacent. Criminals often target areas where they perceive security to be lower. scOS ensures that your home is a 'hard target' by proactively deterring intruders. By using AI-driven lighting and voice warnings, scOS stops crime before it happens, helping to keep Fernhill Heath a safe and peaceful place to live. It's about preventing your home from becoming a statistic, regardless of the local averages.

Fernhill Heath's location on the A38 corridor can lead to increased traffic and unfamiliar vehicles in the area. scOS's DVLA Vehicle Recognition is a powerful tool for residents. It reads registration plates and checks them against the DVLA database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a vehicle that doesn't match its registered description enters your property, scOS can alert you immediately. This is particularly useful for identifying and deterring individuals who may be using the main road to scope out local residential properties.

Yes, scOS features scOS Director, a conversational AI that allows you to ask natural questions about your property. You can ask things like, 'Was there any activity in the garden while I was at work?' or 'Did the delivery driver come today?' It's like having a security guard you can talk to. This makes managing your home security incredibly simple and intuitive, allowing you to get the information you need without scrolling through hours of footage. It's the perfect tool for busy Fernhill Heath residents who want quick, accurate updates on their home's status.
