Standard CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that stops crime in progress. While traditional systems rely on 'motion masks' that trigger for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology focuses only on 'important activity.' It recognises human behaviour and intent without needing you to draw lines on a screen. When a genuine threat is detected in Yapton, scOS doesn't just record—it intervenes with automatic lighting and voice deterrents to scare intruders away before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink, our Intelligence Hub can often transform them from 'dumb' recording devices into proactive AI guards. During our professional installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our UK engineers will assess your current hardware. We'll integrate your existing cameras into the scOS ecosystem, allowing you to benefit from MotionX detection and scOS Director without necessarily replacing all your current equipment.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to keep your Yapton home safe. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic your internal activity patterns, making the house look occupied even when you're at the Sussex coast. Second, MotionX detection identifies suspicious behaviour—like someone loitering or covering their face—regardless of how they try to hide. Finally, if a threat persists, the system triggers an escalating response: instant external illumination followed by authoritative voice warnings from IoT speakers. This proactive sequence is designed to make criminals move on to an easier target.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your footage is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for speed and then escalated to our secure UK data centres for cloud features. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your data is never sold or shared with third parties. 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 when it's already too late. scOS provides 'Home Intelligence' for your entire property boundary. While a doorbell is a reactive gadget, scOS is a proactive security force that monitors your whole perimeter, recognises suspicious vehicle plates via DVLA integration, and intervenes before a criminal even touches your property. It’s the difference between a digital peephole and a virtual security guard.

With Yapton's crime rate currently sitting above the national average, Sussex Police are often stretched. scOS provides an immediate, automated first response. By the time you might need to call the police, scOS has already detected the intruder, turned on the lights, and issued a voice warning. This 'escalating response' often neutralises the threat before a physical police presence is even required, providing you with a vital layer of autonomous protection.

Absolutely. Our DVLA Vehicle Recognition system is perfect for Yapton residents. It doesn't just see a car; it checks the registration against the national database to identify cloned plates or vehicles that don't match their description. If an unrecognised or suspicious vehicle loiters near your driveway, scOS Director can alert you immediately, helping to prevent the 'keyless' car thefts that are becoming more common in West Sussex.

MotionX is a revolutionary leap over standard motion detection. In a village setting like Yapton, traditional cameras are often triggered by foxes, owls, or wind-blown trees. MotionX ignores these distractions entirely. It is trained to recognise human forms and movement patterns, even if someone is wearing a balaclava or trying to crawl. This means you get zero false alarms and can actually trust the notifications you receive on your phone.
