As of 11/1/2024, the original version of DWE_OS is being phased out in favor of DWE_OS 2.0. The previous version is now known as DWE_OS Legacy which can still be found here.

​
What is DWE_OS?

DWE_OS is an optional piece of software — designed to run on underwater systems — that allows for extended functionality of DeepWater Exploration cameras. cameras page
DWE_OS 2.0 cameras page with one exploreHD and two stellarHDs attached. This demo shows the stellarHDs in leader/follower configuration to utilize PrecisionSync™.
DWE_OS 2.0 is the evolution of our first version of the software, DWE_OS. A number of features have been added that massively improve the capabilities and usability of the software. This software is designed for installation on subsea computers (such as our Subsea Vision Computer and Micro Subsea Vision Computer). It provides out-of-the-box camera streaming and customization features, minimizing the development time typically required for subsea camera integration.
DWE_OS is NOT required to use DWE.ai cameras, but instead extends the functionality to ensure they work as expected out of the box.

​
Notable changes

  1. Bus ID camera enumeration: Cameras keep their settings exactly where they should, even after a reboot — no more port confusion
  2. stellarHD leader/follower support: PrecisionSync™ works right out of the box with DWE_OS
  3. WiFi configuration interface: Update your system with ease, right from DWE_OS
  4. Light control integration: Control on/off, and brightness of lights
  5. Built-in terminal: Dive into advanced features without the hassle of SSH

​
Planned features

  1. System updates through the UI
  2. File browser
