Traditional CCTV is a passive system that only records footage, often leaving you to discover a crime after it has already happened. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity' in real-time. While standard systems are often triggered by false alarms like wind or animals, scOS ignores these, focusing only on genuine threats like people or vehicles. It doesn't require complex manual setup; the AI automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder before they can cause any harm.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most existing wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which takes about 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware and integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing 'dumb' cameras into a sophisticated AI-driven security network. It’s a cost-effective way for Great Eccleston residents to upgrade to professional-grade AI security without needing to replace their entire existing camera setup.

scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity inside your home, making it look occupied even when you're out. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour and can even spot people trying to hide their identity with hoods or masks. Finally, if an intruder crosses your boundary, the system triggers an escalating response, including automatic light illumination and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive approach ensures that potential criminals are deterred long before they attempt to enter your home.

We prioritise your privacy by processing data locally on your scOS Intelligence Hub. Only critical events are escalated to our secure, 100% UK-based cloud servers for further analysis. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your data is never sold or shared with third parties. You have full control over your footage, which is stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you via our secure app. By keeping our operations, support, and data centres within the UK, we ensure your home's intelligence is protected by the highest standards of British data security.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only covers your front door; it doesn't stop someone from entering through a side gate or a back window. scOS provides comprehensive, 360-degree protection for your entire property. Unlike doorbells, which can be prone to lag and WiFi jamming, scOS uses reliable wired connections. Most importantly, scOS is designed to prevent crime through proactive measures like presence simulation and voice deterrents. It stops intruders before they reach your door, providing a level of security and peace of mind that a simple doorbell simply cannot offer.

Events like the Great Eccleston Show bring a significant influx of people and vehicles to the village, which can unfortunately provide cover for those looking to scout properties. scOS uses MotionX technology to filter out normal busy activity and focus on genuine anomalies. It can identify if someone is lingering near your property or attempting to access your garden under the cover of the event's crowds. This ensures your home remains a 'hard target' even when the village is at its busiest, giving you peace of mind during local festivities.

Many properties in Great Eccleston have outbuildings, stables, or large gardens that are vulnerable to theft. scOS features Automatic Property Boundary Detection, which means the AI automatically understands the limits of your land. It monitors these peripheral areas just as closely as your main house. If an intruder approaches a shed or garage, the system can trigger a specific voice deterrent or light response to scare them off before they can attempt a break-in. This 'perimeter-first' approach is essential for protecting your entire estate, not just the main residence.

Lancashire Constabulary, like all police forces, can respond more effectively when they have verified, high-quality information. scOS provides this through its MotionX technology, which eliminates false alarms. If you receive an alert, you know it's a genuine threat. You can use the scOS Director—our conversational AI—to ask, 'What is the person in my garden doing?' and get an instant, accurate description. This real-time intelligence is invaluable to the police, as it allows them to prioritise your call and respond with the necessary urgency.
