<p>
A monkeyrunner class that represents a device or emulator accessible by the workstation running
<code><a href="{@docRoot}tools/help/monkeyrunner_concepts.html">monkeyrunner</a></code>.
</p>
<p>
This class is used to control an Android device or emulator. The methods send UI events,
retrieve information, install and remove applications, and run applications.
</p>
<p>
You normally do not have to create an instance of <code>MonkeyDevice</code>. Instead, you
use
<code><a href="{@docRoot}tools/help/MonkeyRunner.html#waitForConnection">
MonkeyRunner.waitForConnection()</a></code> to create a new object from a connection to a device or
emulator. For example, instead of
using:</p>
<pre>
newdevice = MonkeyDevice()
</pre>
<p>
you would use:
</p>
<pre>
newdevice = MonkeyRunner.waitForConnection()
</pre>

The value does not exactly follow the real screen size, but is adjusted to
conform to large changes in the display DPI. See
