Biography

Dr. Bergbreiter graduated with a B.S.E. in electrical engineering from Princeton University in 1999. After a short period at a small startup company working on home automation technologies, she began graduate school at U.C. Berkeley. In 2004, she received her M.S.E.E. for designing the CotsBots - a networked robotics platform built on top of Berkeley's Mica motes and TinyOS. She has recently completed her Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering for designing and fabricating autonomous jumping microrobots. Her research interests include microrobotics, MEMS, networked multi-robot systems, and sensor networks.
