Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus, system and method for providing a Bernoulli-based wafer pre-aligner. The pre-aligner may be capable of accommodating semiconductor wafers of varying sizes, and may include: a wafer support; a bearing arm capable of interfacing with at least one robotic element, and at least partially bearing the wafer support at one end thereof; and a plurality of Bernoulli pads on the wafer support for providing an interface between the wafer support and a one of the semiconductor wafers, wherein the interface comprises a gap there between.
