How two pair two HoloLens`?
Hi there,
i´m trying to pair two HoloLens` to see the same holograms in both glasses.
Developer Mode is On , shared experiences is On.
I´m able to see the other HoloLens while scanning for Bluetooth devices but no matter if i´m trying to pair HoloLens A with B or B with A it says "if your other device shows the same PIN like the following press connect" ... it´ll never show the same PIN.
Am I totally wrong becouse you can just share holograms in some Apps like Unity or is it possible to see, for example, the same Edge Browser on Lens B wich was mounted by Lens A?

To share holograms between two apps, you want to load the HoloLens toolkit and take a look at the Sharing module. Specifically, HoloToolkit/Sharing/Tests/Sharing.scene to see how this is intended to work. This trades coordinate information and holograms between two different HoloLens devices.
Pairing is really intended for something different. You can use it (over wifi) to stream the HoloLens display onto a desktop with the Device Portal. https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/holographic/using_the_windows_device_portal
