Traditional CCTV is essentially a digital witness; it records your misfortune for you to watch later. scOS is a digital guardian. While standard systems rely on basic 'motion detection' that triggers for every spider web, swaying branch, or passing fox, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity.' It understands the difference between a cat crossing your lawn and a person lurking near your windows. More importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it acts. By the time a traditional system sends a notification to your phone, a crime has often already occurred. scOS intervenes the moment a boundary is crossed, using light and voice deterrents to stop the intruder in their tracks. It’s the difference between having a video of a burglary and preventing the burglary from ever happening. We provide a proactive shield, not just a passive record.

In most cases, yes. 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 usually integrate with them. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to the scOS Hub, we can apply our MotionX AI and proactive deterrent features to your current setup. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI intelligence without the need to replace every piece of hardware on your property, making the transition to proactive protection both sustainable and cost-effective.

scOS employs a multi-layered 'Proactive Protection' strategy. The first layer is Presence Simulation. Unlike simple timer plugs, our AI learns your home's actual activity patterns and simulates them—turning lights on and off in different rooms naturally—to make the house look occupied when you're away. The second layer is our MotionX detection. It identifies threats with incredible accuracy, even if an intruder is crawling, changing their shape, or wearing a mask. Finally, if someone enters your property, the system initiates an Escalating Response. This starts with automatic lighting and moves to clear, authoritative voice warnings delivered via external IoT speakers. These are AI-driven responses that let the intruder know they have been spotted and are being monitored. This immediate, intelligent intervention is designed to make criminals flee before they even attempt to break in.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who send all your footage to overseas servers, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your scOS Intelligence Hub for speed and security, and when cloud processing is required for advanced AI tasks, it is handled in secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. You have complete control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app. We believe that your security system should protect your home without compromising your personal privacy, ensuring that what happens on your property stays between you and your system.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you who is at your door, often after they have already pressed the button or triggered a delayed sensor. scOS is a comprehensive property-wide intelligence system. While a doorbell only covers a tiny fraction of your home's exterior, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. Our system is designed to stop crime before it reaches your door. By detecting a person the moment they step onto your driveway or enter your garden, scOS can initiate deterrents like voice warnings and lighting before they ever get close to an entry point. Furthermore, doorbells are often wireless and easily jammed; scOS uses professional wired connections for 24/7 reliability that consumer-grade gadgets simply cannot match.

North Kilworth is a popular spot for visitors to the Grand Union Canal and local marinas. While this brings life to the village, it also means there are many strangers passing through. scOS uses Person Recognition to distinguish between the 'normal' movement patterns of your family and the 'abnormal' behaviour of a stranger scouting a property. It doesn't need to know who you are biometrically; it simply knows that a stranger is behaving suspiciously near your boundary and can trigger deterrents accordingly.

Yes. Our AI includes Covered Face Detection. If someone approaches your property wearing a mask, balaclava, or a hood pulled tight to hide their features, scOS flags this immediately. In a village like North Kilworth, where most people are open and friendly, this kind of concealment is a major red flag. The system can be set to skip the 'soft' warnings and go straight to a high-intensity escalating response, including bright lights and authoritative voice deterrents.

scOS is designed for 24/7 reliability. We use high-quality wired cameras that provide crystal-clear images even in total darkness. More importantly, our AI doesn't need perfect light to work. MotionX is trained to recognise human shapes and movement patterns in low-light conditions. If an intruder tries to use the cover of darkness to approach your home, scOS will detect them and instantly flood the area with light while delivering a voice warning, stripping away their advantage of surprise.
