Converting OpenCV Mat to BufferedImage of Java

While working with opencv and java i got stuck on how to display an image in java's JFrame, because i can't directly put Mat object of opencv in drawImage function of Java's Graphics class, so i need a hack to convert Mat object into BufferedImage which is as follows.
First think of how can we do it, we have some methods to make a BufferedImage such as

• Directly passing the path of image, which is not the case.

• Passing stream of bytes of image into BufferedImage, which can be useful, lets focus on it.

Suppose image is my Mat object

Mat image = Highgui.imread("/Users/Sumit/Desktop/image.jpg");

and i want to convert it into BufferedImage
So lets take an object of MatOfByte.

MatOfByte bytemat = new MatOfByte();

byte mat is to convert image into stream of bytes.

Highgui.imencode(".jpg", image, bytemat);

this will put the bytes into bytemat object
Now convert byte mat into array of bytes.

byte[] bytes = bytemat.toArray();

Pass these bytes into ByteArrayInputStream to get a stream of bytes.

InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);

Now pass this stream in read method of ImageIO class.

BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(in);

Now we have BufferedImage object, we can use it to display it in JFrame's paint method.

This is the complete snippet

Mat image = Highgui.imread("/Users/Sumit/Desktop/image.jpg");

MatOfByte bytemat = new MatOfByte();

Highgui.imencode(".jpg", image, bytemat);

byte[] bytes = bytemat.toArray();

InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);

BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(in);

Happy Coding!!! :)
