i have used regionprops for creation of boundingbox. thnks for the help in advance.
MATLAB: I have created bounding box in the image, now i want to separate the two of the boxes differently , how could i do so ?

Mohsina, try this:

See my Image Segmentation Tutorial: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/25157-image-segmentation-tutorial-blobsdemo. It will show you how you can threshold objects on a dark background and crop out their bounding box to separate images. Almost exactly what you want to do, except that you have color images. Basically you want to extract the color channels:
% Extract the individual red, green, and blue color channels.
redChannel = rgbImage(:, :, 1);greenChannel = rgbImage(:, :, 2);blueChannel = rgbImage(:, :, 3);
Then create a binary image:
binaryImage = redChannel == 0 & greenChannel == 0 & blueChannel == 0;
Then label pass it into regionprops
blobMeasurements = regionprops(binaryImage, 'BoundingBox');
Then use a loop that for each region, use imcrop() to extract the bounding box from the original rgb image and use imwrite() to save it to a disk file. Here's the relevant code from my tutorial, which I'm sure a smart guy like you can modify - just take out the stuff about what coin type it is, and add a call to imwrite().
message = sprintf('Would you like to crop out each coin to individual images?');reply = questdlg(message, 'Extract Individual Images?', 'Yes', 'No', 'Yes');% Note: reply will = '' for Upper right X, 'Yes' for Yes, and 'No' for No.
if strcmpi(reply, 'Yes') figure; % Maximize the figure window.
set(gcf, 'units','normalized','outerposition',[0 0 1 1]); for k = 1 : numberOfBlobs % Loop through all blobs.
% Find the bounding box of each blob.
thisBlobsBoundingBox = blobMeasurements(k).BoundingBox; % Get list of pixels in current blob.
% Extract out this coin into it's own image.
subImage = imcrop(originalImage, thisBlobsBoundingBox); % Determine if it's a dime (small) or a nickel (large coin).
if blobMeasurements(k).Area > 2200 coinType = 'nickel'; else coinType = 'dime'; end % Display the image with informative caption.
subplot(3, 4, k); imshow(subImage); caption = sprintf('Coin #%d is a %s.\nDiameter = %.1f pixels\nArea = %d pixels', ... k, coinType, blobECD(k), blobMeasurements(k).Area); title(caption, 'FontSize', 14); end
