The OGLE-IV Transient Detection System (Wyrzykowski et al. 2014, AcA,64,197; Kozlowski et al. 2013) in the 2015b transient observing season (from August) has been operating in dual mode: regular as in previous years (detections every couple of days based on at least two positive detections), and rapid (automatised detections within 15 mins after the single frame was taken, details in Klencki et al. in prep.). We report the the discovery of 145 new transients detected since Aug. 2015. Most of them appeared near or on top of apparent galaxies and their light curves resemble those of supernovae near or after their peak brightness.
