Sarah Bergbreiter
Department of Mechanical Engineering
Institute for Systems Research
University of Maryland

Sarah Bergbreiter completed her Ph.D. in electrical engineering at UC, Berkeley in Spring, 2007. Her Ph.D. research was on the design and fabrication of autonomous jumping micro-robots.
Her interests lie engineering a new class of networked centimeter and millimeter sized mobile robots, including autonomous mobile microrobots (espically jumping, climbing and crawling), networked centimeter-sized robots, high-force, large-displacement, low-power actuators, low-power MEMS sensors, millimeter-sized power sources and microfabrication techniques.
