I developed an android app which displays info on a large screen continuously, and staff members are in another room, we want to get screenshots remotely. The device and PC are connected via WIFI, so what tools are available to implement this feature? or should I programming from scratch?

@greenapps When press "screen capture" button on a PC application, we could view the current large screen's image. – navylover Aug 21 '18 at 07:08

@greenapps I tried teamviewer, which is a remote software, but the operation of screen capture cannot be automatically done. – navylover Aug 21 '18 at 07:14

Are you able to get a screenshot on the Android device itself with code? – greenapps Aug 21 '18 at 07:17

Those solutions take screenshots of just the app. Not of the whole sceen. Is this what you want? Have you tried those solutions? – greenapps Aug 21 '18 at 07:23

Yes, only app's screen is needed. – navylover Aug 21 '18 at 07:25

Why waiting for a command? The app could continuouisly take a screenshot and transfer that to the pc. – greenapps Aug 21 '18 at 07:27

There are so many examples where an Android client app sends a file to a java server on pc. Or to a socket server on pc or to a webserver on pc. You did not give info what kind of pc application you had in mind. – greenapps Aug 21 '18 at 07:33
