AI Traditional Chinese Medicine Dispenser Now Available – SingTown Technology's Automated Chinese Herbal Medicine Recognition and Dispensing Solution

In the process of traditional Chinese medicine dispensing and automated preparation, the traditional manual identification of medicinal materials is inefficient and prone to errors. With the vast variety of Chinese medicinal herbs and their subtle visual differences, achieving standardized management is challenging. As intelligent medical equipment advances, pharmaceutical equipment companies urgently require an intelligent visual solution capable of rapidly identifying Chinese medicinal materials, automatically weighing them, and accurately dispensing prescriptions.

SingTown Technology's Traditional Chinese Medicine Identification and Dispensing System, built upon the OpenMV intelligent camera, utilises AI image recognition and machine vision algorithms to achieve automatic identification, classification, weighing, and intelligent dispensing of traditional Chinese medicines. It facilitates the digital and intelligent upgrade of the TCM preparation process.

Pharmaceutical equipment enterprises have adopted SingTown Technology's OpenMV intelligent camera recognition technology to construct an AI deep learning machine vision and image recognition algorithm-based automatic medicinal material identification system within traditional Chinese medicine dispensing machines.

The system utilises a high-resolution OpenMV intelligent camera to capture real-time images of medicinal materials. Through an AI image recognition model embedded on the device side, it automatically determines the type, morphological characteristics, colour, and texture of the materials. By combining deep learning with feature-matching algorithms, the system can accurately distinguish between traditional Chinese medicinal herbs with similar appearances (such as Astragalus and Codonopsis, Atractylodes macrocephala and Atractylodes lancea), achieving a recognition accuracy rate exceeding 98%.

Upon real-time transmission of the identification results to the control system, the system automatically invokes the corresponding dispensing parameters, enabling the automated execution of herb grasping, weighing, and proportioning processes. The SingTown Technology OpenMV intelligent camera possesses embedded edge-side AI computing capabilities, allowing for local completion of identification and computation without reliance on cloud networks, thereby ensuring processing speed and data security.

In response to complex lighting conditions in pharmacies or factories and the stacking of medicinal materials, the OpenMV smart camera supports automatic exposure and white balance. This feature can effectively enhance image stability and recognition robustness in complex scenarios.

Leveraging SingTown's integrated software and hardware platform, this embedded vision system seamlessly interfaces with traditional Chinese medicine smart cabinets, automated dispensing machines, and pharmacy management systems, enabling herb identification, automated dispensing, inventory management statistics, and prescription traceability.

Through SingTown Technology's OpenMV intelligent camera AI image recognition technology, pharmaceutical equipment enterprises have achieved a leap from "manual experience" to "AI vision-driven" in traditional Chinese medicine dispensing. Edge deployment has infused traditional Chinese medicine preparation with new vitality in intelligent manufacturing and digital Chinese medicine.
