Standard CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your misfortune for later review. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to understand activity in real-time. Unlike traditional systems that rely on clumsy motion masks and trigger false alarms for every passing fox or swaying branch in the New Forest, MotionX identifies 'important activity' only. It recognises people regardless of how they move or what they are wearing, allowing the system to intervene and stop a crime before it happens, rather than just filming it.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink, our Intelligence Hub can often transform these 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent scOS-powered network. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it meets the technical requirements for our AI processing. This allows you to upgrade to world-class intelligence without necessarily replacing all your existing hardware.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity patterns inside your home, making it appear occupied even when you're away. Second, our MotionX technology accurately detects intruders the moment they cross your property boundary, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Finally, the system triggers an escalating response: instant illumination from smart lighting followed by authoritative warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive approach is designed to make criminals feel 'watched' and 'exposed,' forcing them to retreat.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response and escalated to our secure UK-based cloud data centres for storage and complex analysis. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your data stays yours and is never sold or shared. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it. scOS provides 360-degree protection for your entire property. While a doorbell is a reactive tool, scOS is a preventative system that monitors your boundaries, driveways, and gardens. It doesn't just show you who is there; it actively stops intruders from approaching your home in the first place. For residents in Redlynch and Woodfalls, where properties often have larger footprints, a single doorbell is simply insufficient for true security.

Wiltshire Police cover a vast rural area, and response times to villages like Redlynch can vary. scOS provides an immediate, automated response the second a threat is detected. By using voice deterrents and escalating light responses, the system manages the situation instantly, often scaring off intruders before a 999 call would even be processed. It acts as your first line of defence when help is miles away.

Absolutely. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which checks the registration of any vehicle entering your property against official databases. This is particularly useful for identifying cloned plates or vehicles that have been flagged for suspicious activity. You can even ask the scOS Director, 'What cars have been on the drive today?' to get an instant, natural language report of all vehicle activity.

Yes. Our AI is trained on 'Person Recognition' which focuses on behaviour and gait rather than just facial features. It learns the normal patterns of your household and can distinguish between family members coming home from a walk in the New Forest and a stranger loitering near your perimeter. This allows the system to remain silent for you while staying hyper-vigilant against genuine threats.
