May i know is that possible if we draw a rectangle at the front object show as below picture?

This is the Real Situation

This is what the robot will get from webcam when tracking the color

This what was i get now (draw a rectangles at biggest object)

This is what i want to do

int largestIndex = 0;
int largestContour = 0;
int secondLargestIndex = 0;
int secondLargestContour = 0;

vector<vector<Point> > contours;
vector<Vec4i> hierarchy;

//find contours
findContours(thresh, contours, hierarchy, CV_RETR_TREE, CV_CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE);

/// Find the convex hull object for each contour
vector<vector<Point> >hull(contours.size());
vector<vector<int> >inthull(contours.size());
vector<vector<Vec4i> >defects(contours.size());

for (int i = 0; i < contours.size(); i++)
{
    convexHull(Mat(contours[i]), hull[i], false);
    convexHull(Mat(contours[i]),inthull[i], false);
    if (inthull[i].size()>3)
    convexityDefects(contours[i], inthull[i], defects[i]);
}

//find 2 largest contour
for( int i = 0; i< contours.size(); i++ )
{
    if(contours[i].size() > largestContour)
    {
        secondLargestContour = largestContour;
        secondLargestIndex = largestIndex;
        largestContour = contours[i].size();
        largestIndex = i;
    }
    else if(contours[i].size() > secondLargestContour)
    {
        secondLargestContour = contours[i].size();
        secondLargestIndex = i;
    }
}
    //show contours of 2 biggest and hull as well
if(contours.size()>0)
    {
    //check for contouraea function if error occur
    //draw the 2 largest contour using previously stored index.
    //drawContours(frame, contours, largestIndex, CV_RGB(0,255,0), 2, 8, hierarchy);
    //drawContours(frame, contours, secondLargestIndex, CV_RGB(0,255,0), 2, 8, hierarchy);

    //draw rectangle at specified obstacle
    Rect minRect = boundingRect( Mat(contours[ largestIndex ]) );
    rectangle( frame, minRect, Scalar( 0, 0, 255 ),2 );
    minRect = boundingRect( Mat(contours[ secondLargestIndex ]) );
    rectangle( frame, minRect, Scalar( 0, 0, 255 ),2 );}

Can't equip the robot with a depth sensor or a stereoscopy set? I can't think of a way to solve this issue in a way that it will work for all possible scenarios and perspectives.. a simple webcam only sees 2 dimensions :/

OK thanks.

I agree to Pedro, without extra sensors, this is a no go, unless you know in advance the actual size of the object and want to do some sort of viewpoint/perspective analytics ...

If you know the shape of the objects and can guarantee the top or bottom will not line up exactly, then you can possibly make it work. A few other assumptions are necessary.

Do you know the shape of the objects?
