It is illegal, but the iOS app Display Recorder did it with a framework called IOSurface, which manages a rectangular pixel buffer at the kernel level. You will not be able to detect shake events at the kernel level, but you can record a fairly shaky stream with the pixel buffer and have the user select the appropriate image.
