Copy JSON Object in ng-model of One md-Select to another md-Select using AngularJS

I'm having a JSON Collection

$scope.person = [
    {
        "Id": 1
        "Name": "John"
    },
    {
        "Id": 2
        "Name": "Jack"
    },
    {
        "Id": 3
        "Name": "Watson"
    },
];

Kindly refer my one of the post Copy JSON Object of One Select to another Select ng-model using AngularJS

Here I'm using Angular Material md-select instead of HTML Select

In md-select, ng-options not working. So, kindly assist me how to update Select value of first md-select to second md-select

The Complete HTML Source Code is

            },
            {
                "Id": 2,
                "Name": "Jack"
            },
            {
                "Id": 3,
                "Name": "Watson"
            }
        ];

        $scope.selected = {
            person: null,
            copy_person:null
        };

        $scope.$watchCollection('selected.person', function (newData, oldDaata) {
            var obj = JSON.parse(newData);
            if ((obj != undefined) && (obj != null) && (obj.Id != undefined) && (obj.Id != null) && (obj.Id != "0")) {
                var name = obj.Name;
                alert(name);
                $scope.selected.copy_person = obj;
            }
        });

    });
</script>
</body>
</html>

I'm having two Angular Materials md-Select with same JSON Collection. I Selected a Person Watson in the First md-select "Person", then I need to update the Same in the Second md-select "Copy Person". But I Can't able to update.

I bind the JSON Object as a Value in the md-select options instead of Id or Name

Kindly assist me how to update in md-select ?

Instead of assigning an object just assign the original value.

Currently are you using this approach:

$scope.selected.copy_person = JSON.Parse(newData);

Just Change the logic to 

$scope.selected.copy_person = newData;

                "Name": "Watson"
            }
        ];

        $scope.selected = {
            person: null,
            copy_person:null
        };

        $scope.$watchCollection('selected.person', function (newData, oldDaata) {
            var obj = JSON.parse(newData);
            if ((obj != undefined) && (obj != null) && (obj.Id != undefined) && (obj.Id != null) && (obj.Id != "0")) {
                var name = obj.Name;
                alert(name);
                $scope.selected.copy_person = newData;
            }
        });

    });

By default, the Value part assigns the JSON Object as a String, as per your on of the post Bind JSON Object as a Value in AngularJS HTML Select - Dropdown . So, just compare the value as a String instead of JSON Object.

Unfortunately md-select does not support ng-options...

And ng-repeat cannot bind with ng-model of the select component.
