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 stops the crime while it's happening. Our MotionX technology is a game-changer for Yateley homeowners; it eliminates the false alarms common with traditional systems by ignoring wind, animals, and shadows. Instead, it focuses on 'important activity,' recognising human forms regardless of how they are moving or what they are wearing. When scOS detects a genuine threat, it doesn't just record—it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to drive the intruder away before they can cause damage.

Yes, scOS is designed to be fully brand-agnostic. If you already have a wired IP camera system from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink, we can usually integrate it directly with our scOS Intelligence Hub. During our professional installation—which takes about 4-6 hours—our UK engineers will assess your current setup and transform your 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence AI network. This allows you to benefit from our advanced features like MotionX and Presence Simulation without the need to replace your existing hardware, making it a smart and sustainable upgrade for your Yateley home.

scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent system. First is Presence Simulation: when you're out at work or away for the weekend, the system mimics your internal activity patterns to make the house look occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies anyone stepping onto your property, even if they are wearing a hood or mask. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, scOS automatically triggers external lights and delivers authoritative voice warnings via IoT speakers. This immediate, escalating response makes it clear to any criminal that they are being monitored by an active system, usually causing them to flee immediately.

We take your privacy seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, meaning all your data stays within the UK in GDPR-compliant data centres. We use a hybrid processing model where your scOS Intelligence Hub handles the majority of the work locally on your property. Only when necessary is data escalated to our secure cloud for advanced AI analysis. We never sell your data to third parties, and you have total control over who can access your footage. With scOS, you get world-class security without sacrificing your personal privacy.

A video doorbell only protects your front door and is often reactive—you get a notification after someone has already pressed the button or stolen a parcel. scOS provides proactive, 360-degree protection for your entire property. It detects intruders the moment they enter your garden or driveway and takes action to stop them before they ever reach your door. Additionally, doorbells are often wireless and can be easily disabled with Wi-Fi jammers. scOS uses professional wired connections, ensuring your security remains functional even if a criminal tries to interfere with your internet signal.

Yateley is a popular commuter town, and thieves know that many houses are empty during the day. scOS is specifically designed for this lifestyle. Our Presence Simulation feature goes far beyond simple light timers; it learns your actual habits and replicates them, making it impossible for a burglar 'casing' the street to tell you're not home. Furthermore, you can use 'scOS Director' to ask natural questions like, 'Has anyone been in the back garden today?' while you're on the train home from Waterloo, giving you instant peace of mind.

Yateley's leafy streets and proximity to the M3 make it attractive for high-value car thieves. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which monitors every car that enters your driveway. The AI checks registrations against the DVLA database to identify suspicious or cloned plates. If an unrecognised vehicle lingers near your property, scOS can alert you and initiate a deterrent response. This proactive monitoring is a significant upgrade over traditional alarms, as it identifies the threat before they even touch your vehicle.

While Yateley has a lower property crime rate than the national average (11.87 vs 32.34), this can lead to complacency. Professional criminals often target affluent, 'safe' areas because they expect lower levels of security and higher-value hauls. scOS ensures your home isn't the 'easy target' on the street. By having a system that actively deters intruders rather than just recording them, you maintain the safety of your home and contribute to keeping Yateley's crime rates low. It’s about staying one step ahead of the risk.
