Traditional CCTV is a passive system that merely records events as they happen, often providing little help until after a crime is committed. scOS is an active intelligence system powered by MotionX technology. It doesn't just record; it understands what it's seeing. MotionX ignores 'false' motion like wind-blown trees or animals, focusing entirely on human activity. When it detects a person on your property, it can proactively intervene with lights and voice warnings to stop them. Unlike older systems that require manual 'zones,' scOS automatically learns your property boundaries, providing a smarter, more effective way to protect your Guyhirn home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If you already have a system installed at your Guyhirn property, our professional UK-based engineers can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub during a standard 4-6 hour installation. This 'brain' upgrades your existing cameras with our advanced AI, such as person recognition and proactive deterrence. We use wired connections rather than wireless to ensure your security is robust and cannot be disrupted by signal jammers, which are increasingly used by modern criminals to bypass simpler home security setups.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deter criminals. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic the patterns of a lived-in home while you're away, making your property look occupied. The second layer is our MotionX detection, which identifies intruders the moment they step onto your property, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. The third layer is Active Intervention: the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and activates bright lights to let the intruder know they've been spotted. This escalating response is designed to make any criminal feel exposed, usually forcing them to flee before they even attempt to enter your home.

Your data privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We never sell your data to third parties. The system uses a hybrid processing model: the Intelligence Hub in your home handles local AI tasks for immediate response, while our secure cloud handles more complex analysis and remote access. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks. This ensures your data is used only for your protection and is always available if you need to provide evidence to Cambridgeshire Constabulary.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only covers your front door and alerts you once someone is already there. scOS is a proactive, whole-property intelligence system. It monitors your entire boundary—including driveways, gardens, and side entrances—and intervenes to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell might capture a video of a theft, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from ever reaching your door. For homes in Guyhirn, which often have larger plots or multiple entry points, scOS provides a level of comprehensive security that a simple doorbell cannot match.

Guyhirn’s location at the junction of the A47 and A141 means there's a high volume of through-traffic and transit crime in the area. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs every vehicle that enters your property and checks it against the DVLA database. This helps identify suspicious vehicles or those with cloned plates. If an unrecognised vehicle enters your driveway at an unusual hour, scOS can alert you immediately and even initiate a deterrent response. This is a powerful tool for protecting your vehicles and providing peace of mind in a high-transit area.

Guyhirn’s rural setting means that local wildlife and pets are common. Traditional motion-sensing cameras would be triggered constantly by foxes or cats, leading to 'notification fatigue.' scOS uses MotionX technology, which is specifically trained to ignore animals and environmental factors like swaying trees. It looks for human-specific movement and behaviour. This means you won't be bothered by false alarms, but you will be alerted instantly if a person is prowling around your property, ensuring your security is both reliable and unobtrusive.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. You can ask it questions like, 'Was there any activity in the back garden last night?' or 'Did the courier arrive today?' The Director will analyse the recorded data and give you a clear, concise answer. This makes managing your home security incredibly simple, as you don't have to spend hours scrolling through footage. It’s like having a digital security guard for your Guyhirn home that you can talk to at any time, from anywhere in the world.
