UX Framework
Anticipatory Configuration
Core Behaviour
Logic
Users must be enabled to define their sensory safety limits before the application loads the full 3D environment.
Addresses
"Sensory Shock," where users are exposed to high-intensity environments immediately upon launch without an advance build-up.
Implementation Specification
Critical sensory settings are presented in a neutral, low-stimulus interface immediately after launch, requiring user confirmation before the primary world loads.
Interaction Patterns
The Calibration Void: a specific implementation of this behaviour, providing users with the opportunity to adjust their sensory settings before being exposed to the full intensity of the virtual world._
The Neutral Buffer Zone is recommended to be used in conjunction with this behaviour to provide a safe space for users to adjust their settings before entering the main environment.
