Traditional CCTV is passive; it records a crime while it happens, often leaving you with nothing but footage of a masked intruder. scOS is proactive, using our MotionX technology to identify "important activity"—like a person loitering or a vehicle entering your drive—rather than just motion. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, scOS automatically detects your property boundaries and uses external IoT speakers and lighting to intervene the moment a threat is detected, stopping crime before it starts.

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 them into an AI-powered system. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it meets the technical requirements to support our advanced MotionX and vehicle recognition features.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity patterns inside your home, making it look occupied even when you're away. Second, our MotionX technology spots suspicious behaviour regardless of how an intruder moves or if they are wearing a mask. Finally, if a threat persists, the system triggers an escalating response: instant illumination from external lights and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they are being monitored.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. Unlike many "smart" home brands, we never sell your data. The system uses a hybrid approach where the Intelligence Hub processes data locally for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure cloud for advanced analysis and remote access, ensuring you remain in total control of your footage.

A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a basic motion sensor. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, recognises vehicles via DVLA databases, and detects suspicious activity like covered faces long before they reach your front door. While a doorbell is a reactive tool, scOS is a complete security solution designed to prevent a break-in from ever occurring.

The Neath Valley can experience heavy rain and high winds, which often trigger false alarms on standard motion-sensing cameras. scOS uses MotionX, which is designed to ignore environmental factors like wind-blown trees or rain on the lens. It focuses only on "important activity," meaning you won't be bothered by alerts unless there is a genuine human or vehicle threat on your property.

Resolven’s proximity to the A465 makes it vulnerable to "drive-by" scouting. Our system uses DVLA Vehicle Recognition to log every car that enters your property's vicinity. If a vehicle is spotted multiple times or is identified as having cloned plates, scOS can alert you immediately, allowing you to take action before a potential crime is committed.

Yes, scOS is a 100% UK-based company. This means all our technical support, data centres, and professional installers are based right here in the UK. If you ever have an issue with your system in Resolven, you’ll be speaking to a UK-based expert who understands the local area and can provide rapid assistance.
