Need help with Vuforia integration

I downloaded the vuforia example project for the HoloLens and followed all of the steps but when I use the Holographic Emulator, the app uses my computers webcam to detect the target image and not the HoloLens. I can still see the child image (of the target image) being rendered on the HoloLens but I just need to figure out how to make it use the HoloLens camera and not webcam.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

    Just a gues, but try to disable your webcam in the device manager so that there is no other option but to use the hololens camera.

    "I use the Holographic Emulator"

    The emulator runs on a VM and that VM has access to the hardware devices on the physical host machine. It doesn't have access to your HoloLens cameras.

    Why not just run it on the HoloLens and not on the emulator? Then it will use the HoloLens camera.
