Mystery bloom (or something similar)

This is the second time I have noticed this on my HoloLens. I have had our application exit as if I have done a bloom....but I did no bloom. The application definitely didn't crash as there is no App Crash Dumps and when I start the application again it works again as per normal. Any ideas or suggestions on what might cause this?

    Were you moving your hands at all when this happened? Sometimes the HoloLens can pick up hand movement and interpret it as a bloom gesture. The HoloLens can pick up you opening and closing your hand sometimes as a bloom gesture. Just try to be wary of using your hands when using the HoloLens.

    @dbarrett No I definitely had no hands as I have been caught out with that as well. The first time I had it I was looking at a computer screen, so if I am wondering if something like that is fooling the IR sensors on the HoloLens. Maybe I need to do a sensor recalibration.
