NEST Demo: Distributed Control

This demo showcases a system designed to locate an evader in a sensor network, transport their data out of the network, and use the evader's information for real-time control. The system includes a sensor network, an autonomous pursuer, and various data processing components. Join our demo team as they demonstrate the capabilities of this distributed control system.
