Air Tap event not triggered.. help?

Hi All,
I recently have started to work with the Hololens and im currently facing an issue.
I am trying to see if i can get an AirTap event triggered. Well there is alot of documentation currently but dont know which one is correct and up to date. So thats why I am asking you guys. I am using the latest holokit and Unity 5.5.1f1 (64-bit).

I have added a script to a gameObject which is a child of the hololens.
This is my cursor so i know on what i can point it on.
Via the Gazemanager i am able to transform a hologram ( sphere) which i have added to the scene.
What i want to achieve now is that whenever i "airtap" i want the event to be triggered so that i can do an action on it. ( add a resource or destroy the object which has been identified through the raycast)
I have an object called GazeCursor which I have added a script towards it. (Gazecursor.cs)
i have extended it with an inputClickhandler interface.
public class GazeCursor : MonoBehaviour, IInputClickHandler.
created a method :
public void OnInputClicked(InputClickedEventData eventData)
{
Debug.Log("AIRTAP REACHED");
when i am running the emulator i can press with the spacebar to simulate an airtap. But somehow it doesnt get triggered at all.
I am missing something here but i cant seem to figure it out.
Any help is very much appreciated.

I have managed to solve this one:).
The thing is,i used a raycast on a cursor(a mesh of a cube) so the box Collision is disabled ( else the box would come towards you as the position keeps changing.)
Instead i added a new script on the object that needs to have a event on a trigger.This object ( a sphere) i enabled box collision and checked the "is Trigger". This way it receives all the events that are on this object.
So now i can click on the object with my (selfmade cube) cursor on the object to have the trigger event triggered.
