Seismic Sensor Network Triangulation

Trigger a hidden underground seismic event and compare a single central sensor — which only registers a generic magnitude alert with no location — against a distributed network of autonomous sensor robots that triangulates the event's true origin and depth from arrival-time differences.

Trigger a hidden underground seismic event at a random location and depth, then compare two deployment strategies: a single central sensor that can only report "something happened, magnitude X" with no location information, versus a distributed network of autonomous sensor-robots spread across the region. Each robot in the network detects the same event's wavefront at a slightly different arrival time, and the engine triangulates those differences into the event's true origin and depth — closely matching the hidden ground truth on every trial.

⚙ Under the hood

Trigger a hidden underground seismic event and compare a single central sensor — which only fires a generic magnitude alert with no location — against a distributed network of autonomous sensor-robots that detects the wavefront at slightly different arrival times per robot and triangulates the event's true origin and depth by Gauss-Newton least squares, closely matching the hidden ground truth on every trial.
