Traditional CCTV is a passive system; it records footage that you might look at after a crime has been committed. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to stop crime in its tracks. The core of our technology is MotionX, which ignores common false alarms like animals or wind and focuses exclusively on 'important activity'. It recognises people and vehicles with incredible accuracy, even if someone is trying to hide their face. When scOS detects a threat on your Menheniot property, it doesn't just record—it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to drive the intruder away before they can cause any damage. It’s like having a 24/7 security guard for your home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If your Menheniot home already has a wired system, we can usually integrate our Intelligence Hub to 'brain-train' your existing cameras. This transforms your current setup into a proactive AI system without the need for a full, disruptive replacement. Our UK-based engineers will perform a full assessment during the 4-6 hour installation process to ensure your existing hardware can support our advanced AI features like person recognition and automated deterrents.

scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your daily habits—like turning lights on and off—to make your home look occupied even when you're away. Second is our MotionX AI, which detects intruders the moment they step onto your property, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third is Active Intervention: the system triggers instant lighting and delivers authoritative voice warnings through external IoT speakers. These warnings escalate if the intruder stays, creating a hostile environment for criminals and forcing them to leave before they can reach your home.

Your privacy is our priority. All scOS data is processed and stored right here in the UK in our secure data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. The system uses a hybrid approach: local processing on your Intelligence Hub for instant action, and cloud processing for secure storage and remote access. You have total control over your data, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks. Because we are a 100% UK-based company, you can rest assured that your security data is protected by the highest standards of British privacy law.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and usually only alerts you when someone is already there. For homes in Menheniot, which often have large plots and multiple entry points, this isn't enough. scOS provides comprehensive property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary including side gates, gardens, and driveways. Unlike a doorbell, which is reactive, scOS is proactive. It uses AI to detect suspicious behaviour anywhere on your property and intervenes with lights and voice deterrents to stop a crime before it even reaches your front door. It’s a complete security solution, not just a digital peephole.

Menheniot’s proximity to the A38 makes it easily accessible for non-local vehicles. scOS features integrated DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs the registration plates of every vehicle that enters your property. It can identify cloned plates or vehicles flagged in the DVLA database. If an unfamiliar vehicle enters your driveway, scOS can alert you immediately. This data is also invaluable for Devon & Cornwall Police, providing them with high-quality, actionable evidence that can help identify and track suspects who may be using the main road for a quick getaway.

Many residents in Menheniot have outbuildings, workshops, or sheds that house expensive equipment. scOS is brand-agnostic and wired, meaning we can extend the system to cover these detached structures reliably. Unlike Wi-Fi-based systems that struggle with range and can be easily jammed, our wired connections ensure a stable, secure link. The AI can be configured to monitor these specific areas with the same level of intelligence as your main house, using MotionX to detect suspicious activity around your valuable assets and triggering the same escalating voice and light deterrents to ward off thieves.

In Cornwall, police resources are often spread thin, especially in rural areas. scOS is designed to be your first line of defence, capable of resolving threats independently through its escalating response system. By using lights and voice deterrents, the system often scares off intruders before they can commit a crime. If a serious incident does occur, scOS provides Devon & Cornwall Police with high-fidelity evidence, including person recognition and vehicle details. Because our AI eliminates false alarms, you can contact the police with absolute certainty, providing them with the precise information they need to respond effectively.
