Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in the countermeasures of the prior art, if the image processing is performed by the image recognition unit, there is a problem that many solid medicines are mistaken for one, and the number of solid medicines may not be accurately grasped.
In addition, in the prior art, since the counting is performed based on the image of the solid medicine captured through the packaging paper, the packaging paper may be sandwiched or the characters printed on the packaging paper may be reflected. The accuracy is reduced, and the counting accuracy is also reduced
