OWL DMS (Device Management System) is a web-based platform for managing Duck mesh networks powered by the ClusterDuck Protocol. Monitor devices in real-time, flash firmware from your browser, visualize GPS locations, and export message data.

​
What is a Duck Mesh Network?

A mesh network where devices connect directly to each other, creating multiple pathways for data transmission. This creates a resilient network that continues operating even when individual devices fail. How it works:
  1. MamaDucks (sensor nodes) collect data and relay messages
  2. Messages route through the mesh network to a PapaDuck (gateway)
  3. PapaDuck uploads data to the cloud via WiFi
  4. OWL DMS displays messages in real-time

​
Device Types

PapaDuck (Gateway): Connects to WiFi and uploads data to the cloud. Manages multiple MamaDucks. MamaDuck (Node): Battery-powered sensor device with GPS, temperature, pressure, and humidity support. DetectorDuck: Testing tool for measuring signal strength and optimizing device placement.
