This article introduces a Mixed Reality system which integrates a virtual interface and an obstacle avoidance strategy to enhance safe navigation. The strategy utilizes a virtual Light Detection and Ranging sensor to modulate the dynamic behavior of the UFES vWalker and a visual interface with virtual elements. An experiment involving 10 participants assessed the explainability of these elements, with tasks performed both with and without the interface. Results showed that participants felt secure during tasks, though their understanding of the interface varied, while some visual cues were clear, others caused confusion.

This article introduces a Mixed Reality system which integrates a virtual interface and an obstacle avoidance strategy to enhance safe navigation. The strategy utilizes a virtual Light Detection and Ranging sensor to modulate the dynamic behavior of the UFES vWalker and a visual interface with virtual elements. An experiment involving 10 participants assessed the explainability of these elements, with tasks performed both with and without the interface. Results showed that participants felt secure during tasks, though their understanding of the interface varied, while some visual cues were clear, others caused confusion.
