Most CCTV systems in Godalming are passive, recording crime as it happens but doing nothing to prevent it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. It uses MotionX technology to detect 'important activity'—like a person approaching your property—while ignoring 'noise' like pets or swaying trees. Unlike traditional systems, scOS automatically detects your property boundaries, so you don't need to set up complex zones. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes immediately with external voice warnings and light responses, stopping the crime before it can occur, rather than just providing footage for the police later.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a high-quality system at your Godalming home, our professional UK installers can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This upgrades your existing cameras with advanced AI features like MotionX and DVLA vehicle recognition. We always recommend wired systems over wireless, as they are more reliable and cannot be jammed by the sophisticated equipment often used by modern burglars targeting high-value areas.

scOS uses three layers of proactive deterrence. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking human activity patterns inside, which is ideal for Godalming's many commuters. Second, MotionX detection identifies anyone crossing your boundary, even if they are trying to hide their face. Third, the system uses active intervention: if a threat is detected, it triggers instant lighting and voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This escalating response makes it clear to any intruder that they have been spotted by an active AI system, which is a powerful deterrent for professional criminals.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. Your Intelligence Hub processes data locally for immediate action and only escalates it to our GDPR-compliant UK cloud for storage and remote access. We never sell your data to third parties. You have complete control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks, ensuring your Godalming home's security data remains private and secure.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often reactive. For the high-value properties in Godalming, you need whole-property intelligence. scOS monitors your entire boundary, including driveways and side entrances, detecting threats long before they reach your door. While a doorbell might show you someone at the entrance, scOS will have already detected them at your gate and initiated a deterrent response. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition, scOS offers a level of security that a simple doorbell cannot provide.

Godalming is a popular area for commuters, and empty homes can be a target. scOS's 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 activity patterns inside the house. This makes it look like someone is truly home, moving from room to room, which is a much more effective deterrent than simple smart bulbs. You can commute to London with peace of mind, knowing your home looks lived-in and is actively protected.

High-value vehicle theft is a concern in Surrey. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which reads number plates and checks them against the national database. If a vehicle with suspicious or cloned plates enters your driveway, the system can alert you instantly. This is a powerful tool for protecting your cars and ensuring that any vehicle scouting your home is identified and recorded. Combined with our escalating deterrents, scOS makes your driveway a very difficult target for car thieves.

We understand that privacy is important for Godalming residents. scOS does not use facial recognition; instead, it uses behaviour-based person recognition. This means it can distinguish between family members and strangers based on their activity patterns and how they interact with the property, without needing to store biometric facial data. This provides a high level of security and personalisation while fully respecting your privacy and staying within GDPR guidelines.
