Using data obtained via accelerometer readings on time-synchronized, collective E-puck robots, we propose a framework to detect in real-time the geographic epicenter of a radially-emitted shock wave. Combining techniques to obtain swarm synchronization, centralized communication and the parameters for mathematical multilateration, our research provides foundational work for more advanced detection and localization of earthquake-like vibrations in swarm-intelligent systems. With an experimental setup consisting of three immobile E-puck robots, our methodology has shown potential to provide accurate geographic localization of simple shock waves in a two-dimensional triangular arena. Unfortunately, due to hardware limitations on the E-puck robot accelerometers, actual experimental results were unattainable. This project highlights and contextualizes our implementation and outlines the crux of the problem in order to motivate future related research.
