connect two EOS M200 to fire at the same time

I have two EOS M200 cameras I want to fire at the same time. The idea is to press the shutter button on one and have both shutters fire at the same time. I have tried both the HDMI and USB cable to connect both cameras as well as using the remote. But only one camera shutter fires. The idea is to take 3D stereo photos using the separation between the cameras to achieve the 3D files. The left image in one camera and the right image in the 2nd camera.

I can tell you that some Sony cameras will do this with a USB connection between two cameras but a resister needs to be solder in the connection cable.

Any ideas.

Thanks

Logoman100,

One idea might be to use a wired remote on one camera and have the other wirelessly connected to a phone or tablet. Then press both buttons at the same time. Or even have the second camera tethered with a second wired remote and press both remote buttons at the same time.

I'm not sure how you'd stitch the two photos together. There's probably software out there somewhere that can do that.
