Disabling Bloom gesture on Hololens device

1.2k views Asked by At

I am developing on Hololens. My question is simple : is there any way you can disable the bloom gesture (gesture that pause the application and you to "home"). It is annoying when you need to perform physical movement in front of you that aren't linked to your application.

I read there https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/holographic/gestures that this gesture is handled by the OS and cannot be handled inside my app.

Thanks

with the commercial version of the HoloLens you can have a app run in Kiosk mode. then only that app will be available and the blook gesture won't work

it's definitely a bit late for the answer but I hope it can help others. It is possible to inhibit the gesture by placing a strip of adhesive tape on the visor as in the picture I attach.
