You can create bitmap from byteBuffer, that can be received by call the method getByteBuffer().In the offical quick start example of ML Kit Vission you can find the vay how to achieve this. Below is a piece of code that can solve your problem:
Method getBitmap() thats converts NV21 format byte buffer to bitmap:
@Nullable
public static Bitmap getBitmap(ByteBuffer data, FrameMetadata metadata) {
data.rewind();
byte[] imageInBuffer = new byte[data.limit()];
data.get(imageInBuffer, 0, imageInBuffer.length);
try {
YuvImage image =
new YuvImage(
imageInBuffer, ImageFormat.NV21, metadata.getWidth(), metadata.getHeight(), null);
ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
image.compressToJpeg(new Rect(0, 0, metadata.getWidth(), metadata.getHeight()), 80, stream);
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(stream.toByteArray(), 0, stream.size());
stream.close();
return rotateBitmap(bmp, metadata.getRotation(), false, false);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("VisionProcessorBase", "Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
return null;
}
Method rotateBitmap():
private static Bitmap rotateBitmap(
Bitmap bitmap, int rotationDegrees, boolean flipX, boolean flipY) {
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
// Rotate the image back to straight.
matrix.postRotate(rotationDegrees);
// Mirror the image along the X or Y axis.
matrix.postScale(flipX ? -1.0f : 1.0f, flipY ? -1.0f : 1.0f);
Bitmap rotatedBitmap =
Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight(), matrix, true);
// Recycle the old bitmap if it has changed.
if (rotatedBitmap != bitmap) {
bitmap.recycle();
}
return rotatedBitmap;
}
