Wireless sensor networks can provide real time navigation instructions to robots or people attempting to travel in hazardous environments. This thesis presents the design, analysis, and implementation of a distributed system providing path planning and threat avoidance capability to mobile users. Contributions of the system include a unique framework for modeling for the effects of threats as well as original algorithms for discovering the safest path between any two points in the network.
