This study investigated collision avoidance between two walkers by focusing on the conditions that lead to avoidance manoeuvres in locomotor trajectories. Following the hypothesis of a reciprocal interaction, we suggested a mutual variable as a continuous function of the two walkers' states, denoted minimum predicted distance (MPD). This function predicts the risk of collision, and its evolution over time captures the motion adaptations performed by the walkers. By groups of two, 30 walkers were assigned locomotion tasks which lead to potential collisions. Results showed that walkers adapted their motions only when required, i.e., when MPD is too low (
