% proj_id = astra_create_projector(type, proj_geom, vol_geom, options)
% 
% Create a new projector object based on projection and volume geometry.  
% Used when the default values of each projector are sufficient.  
%
% type: type of the projector.  'blob', 'line', 'linear' 'strip', ... See API for more information.
% proj_geom: MATLAB struct containing the projection geometry.
% vol_geom: MATLAB struct containing the volume geometry.
% options: Optional MATLAB struct containing projector options (like: 'GPUindex', 'DetectorSuperSampling', and 'VoxelSuperSampling')
% proj_id: identifier of the projector as it is now stored in the astra-library.
