Java findHomography transform image point to ground plane point

Objective: Take a point (or set of points) from a camera perspective view and translate it/them to the respective ground plane points.

Approach: Used findHomography to obtain a homography mat using 7 points (in case RANSAC eliminated some). Plan to use perspectiveTransform().

Issue: Cannot interpret homography mat, nor understand how to continue (I don't know C, so cannot follow the example code). It appears 5 of the 9 elements are null, which I take to mean that the homography is faulty, though have no way of interpreting the results, so a made a number of print statements.

        Mat Homog;


        Homog = Calib3d.findHomography(src, dst, Calib3d.RANSAC, 10, OutputMat);

        System.out.println("Columns = " + Homog.cols());
        System.out.println("Rows = " + Homog.rows());
        System.out.println("Width = " + Homog.width());
        System.out.println("Dims = " + Homog.dims());

        for (int i=1; i<= Homog.cols();i++){
            for (int j=1; j<=Homog.rows();j++){
                System.out.println("Row, column " + i + "," + j + " = " + Homog.get(j, i));
            }
            System.out.println();
        }
        System.out.println(Homog.toString());
        System.out.println(OutputMat.toString());
        Highgui.imwrite(rfileoutput, Homog);
        Highgui.imwrite(ofileoutput, OutputMat);
    }
}

The output;

Columns = 3

Row, column 1,2 = [D@7ad1e32d

Row, column 2,1 = [D@6999de59
Row, column 2,2 = [D@74d4db38
Row, column 2,3 = null

Row, column 3,1 = null
Row, column 3,2 = null
Row, column 3,3 = null

What's up?

Thanks for the code. It helped me a lot. Let me help you a bit.

Java arrays start with zero, that's why some places appear to be null.

Homog and OutputMat are C native, so you can't read them before converting like this:

        double[]   java_homog = new double[Homog.cols() * Homog.rows()];
        byte[]     java_mask  = new byte[OutputMat.rows()];
        Homog.get(0, 0, java_homog);
        OutputMat.get(0, 0, java_mask);
