scOS represents a generational leap over traditional CCTV. Most systems in Ilchester are reactive, recording footage for you to review after a break-in has occurred. scOS is proactive. Using our proprietary MotionX technology, the system identifies 'important activity'—like a person loitering near your car—while ignoring irrelevant motion like wind or pets. It requires no manual setup of zones; the AI automatically detects your property boundaries. When a threat is identified, scOS uses external IoT speakers and lights to warn the intruder off, stopping the crime before your property is ever touched.

Yes, scOS is brand agnostic and designed to work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If your Ilchester home already has a wired system, our Intelligence Hub can likely take over the feeds and apply our advanced AI. This saves you the cost of new hardware while upgrading you to features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents. Our UK-based installers will perform a full assessment during the 4-6 hour installation process to ensure your existing cameras are compatible with the scOS ecosystem.

We use a multi-layered approach to deterrence. It starts with Presence Simulation, which makes your Ilchester home look lived-in by mimicking your internal lighting and activity patterns while you're away. If someone does approach, our MotionX AI detects them instantly, even if they are disguised. The system then moves to Active Intervention: external IoT speakers deliver a voice warning, and lights illuminate the area. If the intruder doesn't leave, the response escalates. This 'active' presence is far more effective at scaring off criminals than a silent camera ever could be.

Your data security is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. Unlike other systems that process everything in the cloud, scOS uses a 'Local + Cloud' model. Initial intelligence is processed locally on your Hub for speed, and only necessary data is escalated to the cloud. We never sell your data, and you have complete control over your 24/7 recordings, which are accessible via our secure app from anywhere in the world.

A video doorbell only covers your front door and often suffers from 'notification fatigue' due to false alarms. scOS provides 360-degree intelligence for your entire Ilchester property. It monitors your driveway, side gates, and garden with MotionX technology that eliminates false alarms. More importantly, while a doorbell just tells you someone is there, scOS actively works to drive them away. It’s a comprehensive security solution that protects your whole home, not just a single entry point.

Living near RNAS Yeovilton means your home is subject to unique vibrations and noise that can trigger false alarms on lesser systems. scOS's MotionX technology is specifically designed to ignore these environmental factors. It doesn't rely on simple pixel changes; it understands the 'shape' and 'behaviour' of activity. This means the roar of a Wildcat or Merlin helicopter won't result in a false alert, but a person creeping through your garden will be caught every time.

Ilchester’s history is reflected in its architecture, and we respect that. Our professional installation team is experienced in fitting systems to older and more complex buildings. We use wired connections because they are more secure and cannot be jammed like wireless alternatives, but we take great care to ensure cabling is discreet. Because scOS can use existing cameras, we can often maintain the current look of your home while vastly improving its intelligence.

Our DVLA Vehicle Recognition is a powerful tool for Ilchester residents. The system automatically reads the number plates of vehicles entering your property and checks them against the DVLA database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or an unknown registration lingers near your home, scOS can alert you immediately. You can even use scOS Director to ask, 'What cars have been on the drive today?' and get an instant, conversational report.
