Welcome to dweOS

dweOS is an optional, Linux-only, software interface designed to run on underwater systems like a Raspberry Pi, our Subsea Vision Computer and microSVC. It acts as a powerful companion to DeepWater Exploration cameras, extending their functionality and providing a seamless, out-of-the-box experience.

As of November 1st, 2024, the original dweOS has been superseded by dweOS 2.0. The original version is now referred to as dweOS Legacy.

​
What’s New in dweOS 2.0?

dweOS 2.0 represents a major leap forward, introducing features that dramatically enhance usability and capabilities:
  • Reliable Camera Enumeration: Thanks to Bus ID tracking, your cameras retain their specific settings even after a system reboot. No more guessing which port corresponds to which camera.
  • Integrated WiFi Management: Connect your subsea system to wireless networks directly through the dweOS interface.
  • Direct Light Control: Manage the power state and brightness of your underwater lights directly from the dashboard (currently supported on Raspberry Pi).
  • Built-in Terminal Access: Access the command line directly through the web interface for advanced configurations, without needing a separate SSH client.
  • Seamless PrecisionSync™: Out-of-the-box support for stellarHD leader/follower configurations, enabling effortless synchronization.
