A head-mounteddisplay (HMD), the Microsoft HoloLens, was chosen to allow hands free operation. As part ofthe multidisciplinary teamwork, the technical limitations from the mechanical engineering pointof view had to be understood as well as the current limitations regarding the software andhardware of the HMD device.Follow up conversations with engineering lead to a more thorough, holistic understanding

This may be true; who would not hirea Stanford University graduate simply because the computer science program at Stanford Univer-sity is not accredited by ABET? At the same time, conforming to accreditation standards and peerreview would have helped Stanford or University of Texas avoid headlines that revealed that theircomputer science students have been graduating without taking course work in ethics, somethingABET accreditation standards have required for decades 7 .

Moreover, this documentation approach is furtherenhanced by MATHCAD’s visual interface of mathematical formulae in their standard(textbook) form.
