| Summary: | This paper proposes an intelligent medicine recognition system based on deep learning techniques, named ST-Med-Box. The proposed system can assist chronic patients in taking multiple medications correctly and avoiding in taking the wrong medications, which may cause drug interactions, and can provide other medication-related functionalities such as reminders to take medications on time, medication information, and chronic patient information management. The proposed system consists of an intelligent medicine recognition device, an app running on an Android-based mobile device, a deep learning training server, and a cloud-based management platform. Currently, eight different medicines can be recognized by the proposed system. The experimental results show that the recognition accuracy reaches 96.6%. Therefore, the proposed system can effectively reduce the problem of drug interactions caused by taking incorrect drugs, thereby reducing the cost of medical treatment and giving patients with chronic diseases a safe medication environment.
