What’s New in June 2026

This release brings significant improvements to OWL DMS — including real-time live data streaming, a brand-new device terminal, a redesigned Devices page, and a refreshed visual experience across the platform.

Live Data Streaming via WebSocket

This is the most impactful change in this release — your dashboard and device data now update in real time without any manual refresh.
OWL DMS now uses WebSocket connections to stream data from your mesh network directly to the platform as it arrives. Previously, you needed to refresh the page to see updated sensor readings, message counts, or device status. That’s no longer the case. What this means for you:
  • Device status changes (online/offline) appear on screen the moment they happen
  • Incoming messages and sensor readings populate your dashboard feed in real time
  • Network alerts and anomalies surface immediately — no polling, no delays
  • Map view device positions update live as GPS data arrives
This is especially useful when monitoring active deployments or responding to field events.

Device Terminal

You can now open a live terminal for any connected device directly from OWL DMS. From the Devices page, select a device and open the Terminal tab to:
  • Send commands to your device and see the output in real time
  • View the device’s serial log as it streams in
  • Debug connectivity or sensor issues without needing physical access or a separate serial monitor
The terminal session uses the same live WebSocket connection, so output appears instantly as the device responds.

Redesigned Devices Page

The Devices page has been rebuilt with a cleaner layout that makes it easier to find and manage devices in larger networks. Improvements include:
  • Clearer device cards showing key info at a glance (type, status, last seen)
  • Faster filtering and search across device name, type, and network
  • Improved navigation between device detail views
  • Better handling of offline and disconnected devices

Updated Styling & Icons

We’ve rolled out a visual refresh across the platform — updated icons, tighter spacing, and consistent styling throughout every view. The changes are subtle but cumulative: the interface should feel more polished and easier to scan.

How to Access These Features

All changes are live in your OWL DMS account — no action needed on your part. If you have any questions or run into issues, reach out on Discord.
