Before you insert an element in the array, check first the content of the array. If the inserting object is equal to any then do not proceed with the insert.

Or maybe try this one:

int[] arrayObject={1,5,7,4,5,1,8,4,1};
List<Integer> uniqueList=new LinkedList<>();
List<Integer> duplicateList=new LinkedList<>();
for(int i=0; i<arrayObject.length; i++){
    if(!uniqueList.contains(arrayObject[i])){
        uniqueList.add(arrayObject[i]);
    }else if(!duplicateList.contains(arrayObject[i])){
        duplicateList.add(arrayObject[i]);
    }
}
System.out.println("Elements without duplicates: "+uniqueList);
System.out.println("Duplicated elements: "+duplicateList);

Output:
Elements without duplicates: {1, 5, 7, 4, 8}
Duplicated elements: {1, 5, 4}
