Traditional CCTV is a passive system that merely records footage for you to review after a crime has occurred. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to stop crimes in progress. Unlike standard systems that rely on 'motion detection'—which is often triggered by seagulls, wind, or shadows—MotionX focuses on 'important activity.' It automatically learns your property boundaries and recognises humans even if they are disguised or moving strangely. When a threat is detected at your Preesall home, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with automated lighting and voice deterrents to drive the intruder away.

Yes, scOS is brand agnostic and works with most wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, which takes about 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will integrate your existing cameras with our Intelligence Hub. This 'upgrades' your current cameras with our advanced AI features like MotionX and DVLA vehicle recognition. If your current cameras are wireless or outdated, we can provide high-quality wired replacements that are more reliable and resistant to the salt-air corrosion common in coastal areas like Knott End.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy to keep your home safe. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic your internal home activity while you're away, making the house look occupied. Second is MotionX detection; if someone enters your property, the system identifies them as a person and triggers the third layer: Active Intervention. This involves external IoT speakers delivering a voice warning and smart lighting illuminating the intruder. This escalating response is designed to make any criminal feel exposed and force them to leave your property immediately.

Your data privacy is our top priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model where our Intelligence Hub handles local data for instant response, while our UK cloud handles complex AI tasks and remote viewing. We never sell your data to third parties, and you have complete control over your footage. Your recordings are stored for up to 14 days and are accessible only by you through our encrypted app.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and only alerts you once someone is already there. scOS provides 360-degree protection for your entire property. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from even entering your driveway. By using MotionX to monitor your boundaries and employing active deterrents like voice warnings and lights, scOS stops crime before it happens. It’s a comprehensive security solution that covers your whole home, not just a single entrance.

Preesall and Knott End have many holiday homes and properties that are left empty for periods. scOS is perfect for these homes because our Presence Simulation AI learns your normal routines and mimics them while you're away, making the property look lived-in. You can also use 'scOS Director' to ask natural questions like 'Has anyone been to the gate today?' from anywhere in the world, giving you total peace of mind that your coastal retreat is secure.

Coastal environments like Knott End-on-Sea can be harsh on electronics. Our professional installation uses high-quality, weather-resistant wired cameras and components designed to withstand salt air and wind. Unlike wireless systems that can suffer from signal interference in coastal weather, our hard-wired approach ensures a stable, 24/7 connection. We also ensure all external IoT speakers and lights are properly rated for the local environment, providing long-lasting protection for your seaside home.
