Hello everyone.

The Mixed Reality Forums here are no longer being used or maintained.

There are a few other places we would like to direct you to for support, both from Microsoft and from the community.

The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.

For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality.

If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers, or in our Microsoft Tech Communities forums at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/mixed-reality/ct-p/MicrosoftMixedReality.

And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.

Can my team be overseas, the Hololens here in USA?

Looks like my team members will be from India, I believe they can send over the project as it progresses for me to test on the Hololens. Please correct me if I am wrong about this. Thanks for any input here. Brian Leupold -

    You can do it, but depending on the application, it might be very very difficult. The emulator is great, but working with it can be really tricky. I found it difficult to move freely in the emulator, and good luck trying to visualize the spatial mapping meshes. The closest I've got was to use the device portal, in the 3dView (to see the room) and try to correlate that view with the emulator.

    If you do need to work remotely, I would invest some time in trying to work in unity (write some scripts to be able to move the camera, have some test code to mock gaze and or gesture, create a simple "room" etc.)
    What I've fond is that the time to run (from change in unity to run on device) is also pretty long (around 2 minutes) so having an easy way to test your changes could really come in handy.
