Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity' in real-time. Unlike standard systems that rely on 'motion masks'—which are often triggered by wind or shadows—MotionX ignores the noise and focuses only on people and vehicles. It automatically detects your property boundaries without manual setup. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder before they reach your home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with almost all wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. Our professional UK installation team will integrate your existing cameras with the scOS Intelligence Hub, instantly upgrading them with advanced AI. This means you can keep your existing hardware while gaining features like person recognition, presence simulation, and proactive deterrents. It’s a cost-effective way to bring world-class AI security to your Old Newton home.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking human activity patterns inside when you're away. Second, MotionX AI monitors your boundaries, identifying people even if they try to hide their faces. Third, if an intruder persists, the system triggers an escalating response: instant smart lighting followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This combination is designed to make criminals move on immediately, feeling watched and exposed.

Your privacy 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. Your footage is processed locally on your scOS Intelligence Hub for maximum speed and privacy, with only essential data escalated to our secure cloud for remote access and advanced AI analysis. You retain full ownership and control of your data, and we never sell it to third parties.

A video doorbell is a narrow-focus, reactive device that only tells you someone is at your front door. scOS provides comprehensive, 360-degree property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary—including driveways and side entrances—and uses proactive intervention to stop crime before it starts. For homes in Old Newton, where properties often have significant frontage or are in quiet residential areas, scOS offers a level of protection that a simple doorbell camera cannot match.

Yes, scOS features integrated DVLA vehicle recognition. This is particularly useful for residents concerned about vehicle theft or 'scouting' by unrecognised cars. The system can check the registration of any vehicle entering your driveway against the DVLA database to identify cloned plates or suspicious vehicles. If an unrecognised vehicle arrives, scOS can alert you immediately, providing a level of intelligence that standard CCTV simply cannot offer.

MotionX is specifically designed to ignore the 'noise' of village life. Traditional motion detection is often triggered by swaying trees, wind-blown debris, or local wildlife. MotionX ignores all of this, focusing exclusively on 'important activity'—specifically human and vehicle movement. This means you won't be bothered by false alarms caused by the Suffolk countryside, but you will be alerted the second a real threat is detected on your property.

scOS is installed by our own professional UK-based team. A typical installation takes between 4 to 6 hours, meaning your home can be fully protected in a single day. We handle everything from the hardware setup to the AI calibration, ensuring your property boundaries are correctly identified and your deterrents are perfectly positioned. We use wired connections rather than wireless to ensure the system is robust and cannot be jammed.
