Use Hololens 2 to control a PowerPoint presentation
Hello,
I am looking for a solution that will allow me to use my Hololens 2 to help me give my PowerPoint presentations. Traditionally, I would load my powerpoint onto my laptop which would be connected to a projector. After launching the PowerPoint I would have presenter view on my laptop screen and the normal presentation on the projected monitor. Unfortunately, this requires me to stay next to my computer in order to view my notes and advance the slides.
Instead, what I would like to do is pair my PowerPoint with my Hololens such that the notes are displayed in my headset and I can advance my slides from my headset. This would allow me to walk around the room while still be able to control my presentation. Is there a Powerpoint Hololens solution that would allow me to do this? That is, connect my Hololens to my laptop such that presenter view would be displayed within my headset and I could advance the slides from my headset?
I am aware that there is a work around if you are giving your talk through Microsoft teams as you can run Teams from inside the headset. I have also tried Microsoft 365 office, but this only allows me to open the powerpoint. What I really need is a way to pair a presentation with my headset.
Thanks,
