// subsequently be used to create an instance of
// video_capture.mojom.Device using CreateDevice().
// The factory guarantees that no two device infos it returns use the

  // |device_request| is closed by the client, or a subsequent call to
  // CreateDevice() is made. When a subsequent call is made while the
  // |device_request| from a previous call has not yet been closed, the service
  // "revokes" that previous |device_request| (by closing the connection) and
  // the exclusive access goes to the new |device_request|.
  // Note: This design avoids the issue of it not being clear how soon after a
  // |device_request| has been (asynchronously) discarded a subsequent call to
  // CreateDevice() would succeed if it were to deny access while still
  // in use.

  // be used by the caller to subsequently push video frames. These frames will
  // appear to clients of the device as if they were produced by the device.
  // The virtual device is removed either when the caller releases
  // |virtual_device| or the given |producer| is closed.
