Traditional CCTV is reactive; it's a 'witness' that records a crime for you to watch later. scOS is a proactive 'guard.' The core difference lies in our MotionX technology. While standard cameras get confused by shadows, pets, or wind-blown trees, MotionX ignores all that 'noise' to focus on what matters: human activity. It recognises people regardless of how they move or what they are wearing. When scOS identifies a threat, it doesn't just send a notification; it takes action by activating lights and voice warnings to drive the intruder away before they can cause damage.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If you already have a system installed at your Fremington home, our UK-based engineers can often integrate it with our scOS Intelligence Hub. During the 4-6 hour installation process, we'll transform your existing 'passive' cameras into an 'active' AI system. This allows you to keep your current hardware while gaining all the benefits of scOS, such as MotionX detection and proactive voice deterrents.

scOS uses three layers of proactive protection. First is Presence Simulation, which makes your home look occupied by mimicking your internal lighting patterns—essential for when you're out enjoying the North Devon coast. Second is MotionX, our AI that accurately detects people even if they are trying to hide or change their shape. Third is Active Intervention: if a trespasser is detected, scOS uses external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and triggers instant illumination. This tells the criminal that the house is protected by an intelligent system that has already spotted them.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all data is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub on your property handles the AI analysis locally. This means your private video doesn't need to be constantly streamed to the cloud. Only when a security event occurs is data escalated to our secure UK servers for your review. We never sell your data, and you have total control over your recordings at all times.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only monitors your front door. It tells you someone was there after they've already rung the bell or taken a parcel. scOS provides full-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary and uses AI to stop criminals before they even reach your door. While a doorbell is a 'digital peephole,' scOS is a comprehensive security system that uses lights, voice, and AI to actively defend your entire Fremington property, ensuring that threats are deterred long before they become a problem.

Fremington is a safe area, but its proximity to the Tarka Trail and popular tourist spots can bring a lot of foot traffic past your home. scOS is perfect for this because of its Automatic Property Boundary Detection. The AI automatically learns where your property ends and the public path begins. This means you won't get false alarms from every cyclist or walker on the trail, but the moment someone steps onto your land with suspicious intent, the system will engage its proactive deterrents.

Living near the Taw Estuary means your security equipment needs to be robust. Our professional UK installation uses high-quality, wired components that are far more reliable than wireless 'DIY' kits. Wired systems can't be jammed by criminals using WiFi de-authers, and the hardware we use is designed to withstand the British weather. During your installation, our engineers ensure all cabling is professionally managed and weather-proofed, providing a permanent, reliable security solution for your Fremington home.

scOS is designed for the modern homeowner. You can ask our conversational AI, 'scOS Director,' natural questions like 'Was there anyone in the garden while I was at the beach?' or 'What time did the delivery arrive?' It will give you a clear, spoken or text-based summary of the day's events. This makes managing your home security as easy as having a conversation, removing the need to scroll through hours of 'empty' footage to find the one clip that matters.
