In this episode Matt and Mike discuss another collection of UX considerations including Unseen UX and Forgotten UX. Unseen UX includes experiences such as ABS in a car, where the user has very little control over it, has very little feedback from it, and expects it to produce a result automatically. Forgotten UX typically has standard feedback on a screen, or audio of some kind, but it can be ignored completely and will eventually be forgotten over time - this type of UX can be seen with many face unlock technologies on smartphones and on-screen fingerprint readers.
