Spiders use their webs as multifunctional tools that enable capturing and localizing prey and more general environmental sensing through vibrations. Inspired by their biological function, we present a spider web-inspired optical waveguide system for resilient impulse detection and localization. The structure consists of six clear thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) waveguides arranged radially and interconnected by a spiral TPU thread, mimicking orb spider webs. Light transmission losses, induced by vibrations, are measured via coupled LEDs and photo-diodes, allowing real-time detection. We systematically characterize individual waveguides, analyzing key parameters such as tension, impulse position, and break angle to optimize vibrational response. The complete system is validated through controlled experiments, revealing a 5 ms propagation delay in vibration transfer between adjacent radii, enhancing localization capabilities. We demonstrate a robust impulse detection and localization algorithm leveraging time delay analysis, achieving reliable event identification even in cases of sensor failure. This study highlights the potential of bioinspired optical waveguide structures for adaptive sensing, with applications in soft robotics, structural monitoring, and environmental sensing.
