This paper is devoted to the problem of event-triggered consensus for a class of general linear singular multi-agent systems with undirected topology. Considering that the system states are not measurable, state observers are designed first, and then a new observer-based event-triggered sampling mechanism is proposed, which naturally avoids Zeno behavior. Furthermore, a distributed event-triggered consensus protocol is designed. By employing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method and model transformation approach, sufficient conditions are obtained such that the consensus of the singular multi-agent systems can be achieved, while the explicit dynamic expression of the consensus function is also given. Finally, a numerical example is included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
