Most CCTV systems are passive; they record the crime but don't stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. Using our MotionX technology, it identifies 'important activity'—like a person lurking—while ignoring the coastal winds and seagulls common in Parton. It doesn't need you to set up complex motion zones because the AI automatically detects your property boundaries. While standard CCTV provides evidence for the Cumbria Constabulary after the fact, scOS is designed to intervene and prevent the crime from happening.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our UK-based engineers can usually integrate your existing cameras into our Intelligence Hub in just 4 to 6 hours. This upgrades your current 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence AI network, providing you with proactive deterrents and advanced MotionX detection without the need for a completely new camera installation.

We use a three-layer deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation mimics your internal activity patterns to make your home look occupied, even if you're out for the day in Whitehaven. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders even if they are disguised or trying to hide. Third, if someone enters your property, the system triggers an escalating response: automatic lighting followed by clear, AI-generated voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This ensures any intruder knows they are being watched by an active system.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. Initial processing happens locally on your Intelligence Hub, and only critical events are escalated to the cloud. You retain full ownership and control of your data, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks. We never sell your personal information or footage to third parties.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and often only alerts you once someone is already there. scOS provides comprehensive intelligence for your entire property. It detects threats at your boundary, long before they reach your door. For coastal homes in Parton, where access might be from multiple sides, this 'perimeter-first' approach is far more effective at preventing crime than a simple doorbell camera.

Parton’s coastal location means cameras are exposed to salt air and high winds. scOS works with high-quality, wired IP cameras that are built to withstand these conditions. Furthermore, our MotionX AI is specifically tuned to ignore the 'noise' of coastal weather—like salt spray on the lens or high-velocity wind—focusing only on genuine human threats. This ensures your security remains reliable even in the toughest Cumbrian weather.

Yes, scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition. This is particularly useful for identifying vehicles that may be 'casing' the village or those that don't belong to residents. The system can flag cars with cloned plates or those that have been seen multiple times in a suspicious context. You can ask the scOS Director, 'What cars have been on the front today?' for an instant report, providing an extra layer of protection for your property.

While Parton's crime rate is lower than the national average, property crime is still a concern for local residents. scOS provides a high-tech deterrent that makes your home a difficult target. By proactively deterring intruders with voice warnings and presence simulation, you reduce the risk of burglary and help maintain the safety and peace of the Parton community.
