In this brief, we study the consensus seeking problems for second-order nonlinear multi-agent systems with unavailable velocity measurements. An event-triggered control strategy is developed based on causally sampled position data only, which can reduce the controller update frequencies significantly and avoid continuous communications effectively. Some sufficient conditions for achieving consensus are obtained in light of Lyapunov-Krasovskii stability theory and linear matrix inequality technique.
