Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your Shirland and Stonebroom property being burgled; scOS is a proactive guardian. While standard systems rely on motion masks that trigger for every passing cat or swaying branch on the A61, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity' only. It ignores environmental noise and focuses on genuine threats, such as a person loitering near your driveway. Unlike 'dumb' cameras, scOS doesn't just watch—it intervenes automatically with lights and voice warnings to stop a crime before it starts, ensuring you aren't just left with a video of a masked intruder.

Absolutely. scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to transform existing 'dumb' wired IP cameras into an intelligent, proactive security network. Whether you have Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink cameras installed at your Derbyshire home, our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate them. During our professional installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our UK engineers will assess your current hardware. By layering our AI over your existing cameras, we provide a cost-effective way to upgrade to world-class home intelligence without needing a complete hardware overhaul.

We use a sophisticated three-layer approach to keep your home safe. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity patterns inside your home, making it look occupied even if you're out for dinner in Alfreton. Second, our MotionX detection identifies suspicious behaviour or concealed faces regardless of how an intruder moves. Finally, if a threat is detected within your property boundaries, scOS triggers an escalating response: instant illumination followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive intervention is designed to make criminals feel 'seen' and flee immediately.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many global brands, scOS is 100% UK-based, meaning all your data is stored in secure UK data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. We use a hybrid processing model: our Intelligence Hub handles immediate AI analysis locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary. Your footage is yours alone; we never sell data to third parties, and you have total control over who can access your system's insights.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at the door; scOS is a comprehensive intelligence system that protects your entire property boundary. While doorbells often suffer from 'notification fatigue' and can be easily bypassed, scOS monitors your whole perimeter with professional-grade wired cameras that can't be jammed. We don't just show you who stole your parcel; we prevent the intruder from ever reaching your porch by detecting them the moment they step onto your land and providing an immediate deterrent response.

Derbyshire Constabulary often has to prioritise high-priority urban calls; scOS provides an immediate, automated first line of defence. By the time a patrol could reach a village like Stonebroom, a traditional alarm would have finished ringing and the intruder would be gone. scOS acts as your on-site security guard, delivering instant warnings that often end an incident in seconds, long before a physical police response is even required.

Yes, scOS is specifically designed to handle the complexities of village life. Our MotionX AI is trained to ignore the movement of livestock, pets, and wildlife that are common in the Derbyshire countryside. Unlike standard systems that would send a notification every time a fox crosses your garden, scOS only alerts you to 'important activity'—specifically human threats or suspicious vehicle patterns—ensuring you only get notified when it truly matters.

scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which is particularly useful for homes near the A61. The system doesn't just see a car; it checks the registration against the DVLA database to identify potential cloned plates or vehicles that have been loitering suspiciously in the area. If an unknown vehicle enters your driveway or lingers outside your gates, scOS can alert you immediately, allowing you to take action before any physical attempt on your property is made.
