Traditional CCTV in Woodbury is usually passive, meaning it only records footage for you to look at after a crime has happened. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to stop crime in its tracks. Unlike standard cameras that get triggered by every passing animal or swaying branch on Woodbury Common, MotionX focuses only on 'important activity.' It automatically learns your property boundaries and identifies human threats, even if they are trying to hide their face. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with lights and voice warnings through external IoT speakers, deterring the intruder before they even reach your home. It’s an active guard for your property, not just a witness.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most wired IP cameras, such as Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a camera system installed at your Woodbury home, our Intelligence Hub can often integrate with it. During our professional UK-based installation, which takes about 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup. We transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent system by adding our AI processing power. This means you can get the benefits of proactive protection and MotionX detection without needing to replace all your current hardware, making it a very efficient way to upgrade your security.

scOS uses a three-layer approach to keep your home safe. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which makes your home look occupied when you're away by mimicking your usual activity and lighting patterns. This is the best way to stop a burglar from even considering your house. The second layer is MotionX detection, which identifies people on your property regardless of how they are moving or what they are wearing. The third layer is active intervention: if someone crosses your boundary, scOS triggers lights and escalating voice warnings through external IoT speakers. This immediate response tells the intruder they've been spotted by an AI system, which almost always makes them leave immediately.

Your privacy is a top priority for us. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, so your data stays yours and is never sold. Our system uses a hybrid processing model: the scOS Intelligence Hub does most of the work locally on your property for speed and privacy, only using our secure UK cloud for advanced AI tasks or remote access. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. You can access it anytime through our secure app, knowing your data is safe.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door, but scOS protects your entire property. While a doorbell might show you someone stealing a parcel, scOS is designed to stop them before they even get to your door. Video doorbells also often suffer from false alarms caused by people walking past on the street in Woodbury, but scOS uses MotionX to ignore the road and only focus on your land. With scOS, you get whole-property protection, including vehicle recognition and active voice deterrents, which a doorbell simply can't offer. It’s a much more complete and proactive way to protect your home and family.

Woodbury’s proximity to the Common and its popular walking trails means there is often a lot of legitimate foot traffic near properties. Standard motion-sensing cameras are notorious for 'false triggering' in these environments, sending constant alerts for every passer-by or dog walker. scOS solves this with MotionX. Our AI is trained to ignore activity on public paths and focus only on 'important activity' within your property boundaries. This means you won't be bothered by people enjoying the Common, but you will be alerted instantly if someone enters your garden. It provides the perfect balance of high-sensitivity security and village-specific reliability.

Many Woodbury residents commute into Exeter or Exmouth, leaving their homes empty during the day. scOS is designed specifically for this. Our Presence Simulation feature ensures your home never looks empty, mimicking your internal activity patterns to deter opportunists. You can also use 'scOS Director,' our conversational AI, to check on your home from your office. Simply ask, 'Has anyone been near the garage today?' and get an instant, natural language update. It’s like having a security guard on-site while you’re at work, giving you total peace of mind throughout the day.

In rural East Devon, police response times can sometimes be longer than in urban areas. scOS acts as your first line of defence, providing the immediate intervention that a remote police force cannot. By using voice deterrents and automatic lighting the moment a boundary is crossed, scOS often resolves the threat before a break-in even occurs. If an incident does happen, our AI-analysed evidence, including vehicle registrations and person recognition, provides Devon & Cornwall Police with the best possible information to catch the perpetrators, ensuring that your home is never an easy target.
