Hololens 1 doesn't natively support object detection, you'll need to use third-party code.
OpenCV is a good starting point, as it is open source and well known/regarded. There are various guides on installing/using it, and also a good ready-build Unity asset which would could consider.
Hololens V2 is looking like it will integrate well with the azure cloud, and will likely support remote object detection/recognition. But for now I would recommend OpenCV.
