Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive guardian. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity.' It recognises people regardless of how they move or what they are wearing, without the need for complex motion masks. Most importantly, scOS doesn't just watch—it intervenes. By detecting threats at your property boundary, it can trigger automatic light responses and voice warnings to stop an intruder before they ever reach your door, turning your cameras from a witness into a deterrent.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can transform 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security network. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti, our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate with them. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By layering our AI over your existing cameras, we provide a cost-effective way to upgrade to world-class home intelligence without needing to replace every piece of hardware on your property. This allows you to keep the equipment you've already invested in while gaining the proactive protection of scOS.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied to anyone watching. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour at the very edge of your property boundary. Unlike standard systems, it isn't fooled by disguises or unusual movement. Third is Active Intervention. When a genuine threat is detected, the system triggers an escalating response, starting with instant illumination and followed by authoritative warnings from external IoT speakers. This immediate, AI-driven response signals to criminals that they have been spotted and that the home is actively defended.

Privacy is a cornerstone of the scOS philosophy. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub before being escalated to our secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your footage and personal information remain your property and are never sold or shared with third parties. You have total control over your data, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app. We believe that home security should never come at the cost of your personal privacy.

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 provides whole-property intelligence that stops crime before it happens. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary using AI that understands the difference between a delivery driver and a loiterer. Furthermore, doorbells rarely offer proactive deterrents. scOS uses escalating voice warnings and light responses to drive intruders away from your property entirely. It’s the difference between seeing a package thief on camera and ensuring the thief never feels comfortable enough to step onto your driveway in the first place.

Landrake’s position as a gateway on the A38 means many vehicles pass through daily, some of which may be scouting for opportunities. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which automatically logs and checks the registration of any vehicle that enters your property. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a history of suspicious activity is detected, the system can alert you immediately. This is a vital tool for Landrake residents, providing a level of scrutiny that traditional CCTV simply cannot offer.

Cornish weather can be tough on electronics, but scOS is built for the UK environment. We use high-quality, wired IP cameras that are far more durable and reliable than wireless alternatives. During our professional installation, we ensure all equipment is properly weather-sealed and positioned to withstand the elements. Furthermore, our MotionX AI is trained to ignore heavy rain, sea mist, and wind-blown debris, ensuring that your security remains focused on genuine threats regardless of the weather in Landrake.

Many residents in Landrake may have second homes or travel frequently. scOS Director is our conversational AI that lets you check on your property as if you were talking to a security guard. You can ask, 'Has anyone been near the back door?' or 'Was there any activity while I was away?' The AI will provide a natural language summary of events, allowing you to stay connected to your home’s security from anywhere in the world, providing total peace of mind while you're away.
