GithubIn the process of traditional Chinese medicine dispensing and automated preparation, the traditional manual identification of medicinal materials is inefficient and prone to errors. Additionally, the wide variety of Chinese medicinal herbs and their subtle visual differences make standardized management difficult to achieve. With the advancement of intelligent pharmaceutical equipment, pharmaceutical device 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 on the OpenMV smart camera, utilizes 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 utilizes 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 species, morphological characteristics, and color texture of the materials. By integrating deep learning and feature matching algorithms, the system can accurately distinguish between Chinese medicinal herbs with similar appearances (such as Astragalus and Codonopsis, Atractylodes macrocephala and Atractylodes lancea), achieving a recognition accuracy rate exceeding 98%.
After the recognition results are transmitted to the control system in real time, the system automatically calls the corresponding dispensing parameters to achieve automated execution of the processes of grabbing, weighing, and proportioning medicinal materials. SingTown Technology's OpenMV smart camera features embedded edge-side AI computing capabilities, enabling local recognition and computation without relying on cloud networks, 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.
Relying on SingTown Technology's integrated software and hardware platform, this embedded vision system can seamlessly connect with traditional Chinese medicine smart cabinets, automatic dispensing machines, pharmacy management systems, and more, enabling herb identification, automatic 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.
