Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Higham (Gravesham)
Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime while it happens but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. While standard cameras rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every spider web or gust of wind, our MotionX technology ignores the noise and focuses only on 'important activity.' It recognises people regardless of their shape or if they are trying to hide. Most importantly, scOS doesn't just watch—it acts. Using automatic property boundary detection, it identifies threats the moment they step onto your land and can trigger instant light responses or AI voice warnings from external speakers to deter the intruder before they ever reach your door.
Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-level intelligence network. We work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. If your cameras are compatible, we simply connect them to our Intelligence Hub. This hub processes the video locally before escalating critical data to our UK cloud, giving your old cameras the power of MotionX detection, vehicle recognition, and proactive deterrents without needing a full hardware replacement.
scOS uses a three-layered approach to stop criminals. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your home's normal patterns and simulates human activity inside (like light movements) to make the house look occupied when you're away. Second is MotionX detection: our AI identifies suspicious behaviour or covered faces immediately, even if the intruder is wearing a mask or balaclava. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected within your auto-detected boundaries, the system triggers an escalating response. This starts with instant illumination and can progress to clear, authoritative AI voice warnings delivered via external IoT speakers. Unlike a standard alarm, scOS makes the criminal feel 'seen' and monitored, usually causing them to flee immediately.
Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many security companies that ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. All video processing begins locally on your Intelligence Hub. When an event requires AI analysis, it is sent to our secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. Your data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, and it is never sold to third parties. You have full control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible anywhere via our secure app. Because we are a UK company, our support and data infrastructure are governed by the strictest privacy laws in the world, ensuring your home stays private.
A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or stolen a parcel. scOS is a whole-property intelligence system. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire boundary. It uses DVLA-linked vehicle recognition to spot suspicious cars and MotionX to identify people lurking in 'blind spots' where doorbells can't see. Furthermore, doorbells rarely offer proactive deterrents. scOS stops the crime from happening by intervening at the perimeter with lights and voice warnings, rather than just giving you a video of the person who just broke in.
Higham is a popular village for London commuters, meaning many homes are left empty for long periods during the day. scOS is specifically designed for this. Our Presence Simulation doesn't just use simple timers; it mimics real human activity inside your home, making it appear occupied to anyone watching from the street. If someone does approach, the system's escalating response—from lights to voice warnings—provides a level of protection that ensures your home is defended even when you're miles away in the city.
Kent Police manage a large area, and providing them with clear, actionable evidence is crucial. scOS features DVLA-linked vehicle recognition and advanced person recognition. Our scOS Director AI allows you to search your footage using natural language, such as 'Show me any silver cars that parked outside yesterday.' This allows you to provide the police with precise information, including number plates and descriptions, in seconds, significantly aiding any investigation.
Yes. Higham’s village setting means you likely have local wildlife and moving trees near your property. Traditional motion sensors would be constantly triggering false alarms, but scOS uses MotionX technology. This AI is trained to ignore animals and weather-related movement, focusing only on 'important activity' like human presence. This ensures that when you receive a notification on your phone, it's something that actually requires your attention.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
