Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your misfortune, but scOS is a proactive guardian. While standard systems rely on 'motion masks' that you have to manually draw—and which still result in endless false alarms from shadows or the wind—our MotionX technology understands 'important activity' out of the box. It ignores spiders, swaying trees, and animals, focusing solely on genuine threats. Instead of just filming a break-in, scOS intervenes the moment a boundary is breached, using AI to identify suspicious behaviour and deploying immediate deterrents like light and voice warnings to stop the crime before it starts.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning we can often transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence network. If you have wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink already installed around your Mulbarton property, our Intelligence Hub can usually integrate them. During our professional UK-based installation, which typically takes about 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By layering our AI over your existing cameras, you get all the benefits of proactive protection and MotionX detection without the need for a complete hardware overhaul, provided the cabling is sound.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to keep your home safe. First is Presence Simulation: when you're away, the system simulates natural human activity inside your home to make it look occupied, which is the most effective way to stop a burglar from even choosing your house. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies people regardless of how they move or if they try to hide their face. Finally, if a threat is detected, the system triggers Active Intervention. This isn't just a silent alert; it’s an escalating response where external IoT speakers deliver AI-generated voice warnings and lights illuminate the area, making it clear to the intruder that they are being watched and recorded.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. Unlike many competitors who send footage to overseas servers, your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub before being securely escalated to our UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your footage and personal information remain your property and are never sold to third parties. You have total control over your data through the scOS app, and with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, you can access your history from anywhere in the world, knowing it is protected by British privacy standards.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they’ve already pressed it or moved away. scOS is a comprehensive property intelligence system that protects your entire perimeter. While a doorbell covers a few square metres, scOS monitors your whole property boundary automatically. More importantly, scOS is designed to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell might capture a package thief in the act, scOS detects the approach, simulates presence to deter the attempt, and uses active voice warnings to drive the intruder away before they ever reach your front door.

Mulbarton is famous for its beautiful Common, but living near large green spaces often means dealing with a lot of wildlife and insects. Standard CCTV systems would constantly alert you to a deer, a fox, or even a spider crawling across the lens. scOS uses MotionX, which is specifically designed to ignore these distractions. It focuses only on 'important activity'—meaning human-led threats. You can enjoy the rural charm of Mulbarton without your phone buzzing every time a bird flies past, ensuring that when scOS does alert you, it’s for a genuine security concern.

In Norfolk, we know that professional, reliable service is key. Our installation process is handled by our own UK-based experts and typically takes just 4-6 hours. We don't just 'hang cameras'; we set up your Intelligence Hub, configure the AI to your specific property boundaries, and ensure your external IoT speakers are perfectly positioned for maximum deterrent effect. We also use wired connections rather than WiFi, which means your system can't be 'jammed' by tech-savvy criminals—a growing concern even in quiet villages like Mulbarton.

If an intruder ignores the initial light response, scOS moves to an Escalating Response. Our external IoT speakers will deliver a clear, AI-driven voice warning. This isn't a pre-recorded 'please leave' message; it’s a direct, authoritative warning that lets the intruder know they have been detected by an intelligent system. This psychological deterrent is incredibly effective because it removes the 'anonymity' that burglars rely on. They realise they aren't just being filmed; they are being actively managed by a system that is already logging their description and behaviour.
