hi, i am developing android app using android sdk camera. on camera preview i need the frame content so i am using PreviewCallback to return the data in byte array, now my problem is saving the data in mat object the mat return gray images:

public void onPreviewFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera) {
    Mat src = new Mat(previewSize.height, previewSize.width, CvType.CV_8U, new Scalar(255));
    src.put(0, 0, data);
    Highgui.imwrite("/mnt/sdcard/1.jpg", src);
}

anybody can help me to generate argb images

data array is YUV frame. In most cases YUV420sp format is used. You use only Y component of frame. See any of Java OpenCV examples in OpenCV4Android SDK for more details.

Your code should look like this:

Rgba = new Mat();
Yuv = new Mat(previewSize.height + previewSize.height / 2, previewSize.width, CvType.CV_8UC1, data);
Gray = mYuv.submat(0, getFrameHeight(), 0, getFrameWidth());
Imgproc.cvtColor(mYuv, mRgba, Imgproc.COLOR_YUV420sp2RGB, 4);
Process(Gray, Rgba);

in java, mat contractor dosent contain byte[], so you cant put image data in contractor directly.

I'm sorry, you are right. Additional call Yuv.put(0, 0, data); is needed.

what's the scalar doing in the constructor. I am not using the java api, but try something like

Mat src = new Mat(previewSize.height, previewSize.width, CvType.CV_8UC1, data);

notice the C1 at the end.

afaik the yuv frame starts with a black and white image
