Experiential observation

Conscious observation is consciously observing another consciousness as a sensepath type experience. There are many ways a consciousness can be observed without directly experiencing the consciousness itself. One limited example of this might be what you would experience about another person life from a movie. But it can be much more complex than this such as experiencing only the complete sensepath of this other conscious being. Observing the sensepath that is applied to another person is not exactly observing another person's consciousness. But if your structure and functioning is close to that of the other person then There can be close conscious observation. Also by appropriate transformation of the sensepath the same approximate consciousness could be produced in a different physapath.

Experiential observation is where the observer actually experiences what the observee exactly experiences. One way this can be done is where the experience or consciousness is part of a larger more encompassing consciousness produced by a more complex structure and functioning of an itobrain. An observation will take additional steps in gathering knowledge about the observed consciousness.
