        <intro>
<![CDATA[
Media Projection API lets you capture the current screen through Surface.

To start media projection, you need to get an instance of [MediaProjection][1]. For this, you have
to call startActivityForResult with an Intent from
[MediaProjectionManager.createScreenCaptureIntent()][2]. This shows a confirmation dialog to the
user. When user confirms it, you will get a result code and data in onActivityResult, so pass those
to [getMediaProjection][3].

Once you get a MediaProjection, use [createVirtualDisplay][4] and bind it to a Surface.
