Standard CCTV is a passive observer; it records your property being burgled so you can watch the footage later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that intervenes before a crime occurs. The core difference lies in our MotionX technology, which doesn't just see 'motion' like traditional cameras—it understands 'activity.' While old systems are plagued by false alarms from cobwebs, wind, or foxes, MotionX ignores the noise and focuses on what matters: people and vehicles. It requires no manual 'tripwires' or 'zones' because the AI automatically learns your property boundaries. When an actual threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record; it responds with escalating light and voice deterrents to drive intruders away before they reach your door.

Absolutely. One of the most powerful aspects of scOS is its ability to transform 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security network. If you have existing wired IP cameras—such as those from Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink—our Intelligence Hub can usually integrate them into the scOS ecosystem. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to our local processing hub, we can apply our MotionX AI and proactive deterrent features to your current setup, saving you the cost of a full hardware replacement while vastly upgrading your home's IQ.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation: when you're away, the system simulates normal human activity inside your home using internal lighting patterns, making the property appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour at the boundary of your property, even if the intruder is wearing a mask or attempting to hide their figure. Finally, if an intruder persists, the system triggers Active Intervention. This isn't just a silent notification to your phone; it involves external IoT speakers delivering AI-generated voice warnings and instant illumination. This escalating response is designed to make the criminal feel 'seen' and 'monitored,' usually resulting in them fleeing the site immediately.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many global brands that ship data to overseas servers, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and escalated to our secure UK data centres only when necessary for AI analysis or remote access. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your footage and personal information stay yours—we never sell or share your data with third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible via our secure app. By keeping our company, support, and data infrastructure within the UK, we ensure the highest standards of data sovereignty and security.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is already at your front door; by then, it's often too late. scOS provides whole-property intelligence that stops crime before it reaches the door. While doorbells rely on simple PIR sensors that can be triggered by a passing car or a cat, scOS uses MotionX to monitor your entire property boundary with zero false alarms. Furthermore, doorbells rarely offer proactive deterrents. scOS uses external IoT speakers and escalating light responses to actively turn intruders away. It’s the difference between a digital peephole and a professional, AI-driven security guard that never sleeps.

Wrecclesham has one of the lowest crime rates in the country, which can lead to a false sense of security. However, professional burglars often target 'safe' Surrey villages precisely because residents may be less vigilant. scOS is designed to maintain that safety without being intrusive. Our AI-driven MotionX technology monitors your property 24/7, ensuring that even if you're the one house in the village targeted, the system will detect the threat and intervene before any harm is done. It’s about maintaining your peace of mind, not living in fear.

We understand that Wrecclesham residents value the character of their village. Our systems are designed to be as discreet as possible. We use compact, high-performance cameras and hidden wiring to ensure your home's aesthetic is preserved. Furthermore, our deterrents are 'smart'—they don't just blast noise at every passerby. The system only triggers voice warnings or lights when it detects a genuine threat on your property, ensuring you remain a good neighbour while keeping your home secure.

Yes, scOS features Person Recognition that is based on behaviour and patterns, not invasive facial recognition. It learns the 'normal' activity of your household. This means it won't alert you every time a family member comes home or the gardener arrives. However, if it detects a stranger showing suspicious behaviour—such as lingering at a window or trying a door handle—it will immediately flag this as 'important activity' and initiate its deterrent protocols. This provides a high level of security while minimising unnecessary notifications.
