Description
本發明係關於一種藥物投放暨攝影裝置、藥物辨識裝置及藥物辨識系統。具體而言,本發明係關於一種包含二攝影模組的藥物投放暨攝影裝置、利用該二攝影模組所拍攝的二張影像進行藥物辨識的藥物辨識裝置及包含前述藥物投放暨攝影裝置與藥物辨識裝置的藥物辨識系統。 The invention relates to a drug delivery and photography device, a drug identification device and a drug identification system. Specifically, the present invention relates to a drug delivery and photography device comprising two camera modules, a drug identification device for drug identification using two images captured by the two camera modules, and a drug delivery and photography device comprising the aforementioned drug delivery and photography device and a drug A drug identification system for an identification device.
許多住院或居家照護的民眾需要根據醫師開立的處方籤前往藥局領藥。實務上,大多數藥局的空間相當狹窄,各種藥物往往被緊鄰地放置。此外,許多藥物的藥名高度近似,但藥效與外觀卻截然不同。因此,當藥師面對龐大的工作量時,便容易給藥錯誤。若發生給藥錯誤的情況,不僅無法治癒民眾,也會導致醫療糾紛。 Many people who are hospitalized or cared for at home need to go to the pharmacy to get the medicine according to the prescription issued by the doctor. In practice, the space of most pharmacies is quite narrow, and various medicines are often placed next to each other. In addition, many drugs have highly similar names, but have completely different effects and appearances. Therefore, when a pharmacist is faced with a huge workload, it is easy to make medication errors. In the event of medication errors, not only will people not be cured, but it will also lead to medical disputes.
為解決上述問題,目前業界所採行的一種作法是透過一個攝影鏡頭來擷取藥物的一張影像,產生該藥物影像的特徵向量,再將該特徵向量與資料庫中的其他特徵向量比對來決定藥物的種類。一般的藥物包含藥錠及膠囊二種型態,通常藥錠的藥物資訊僅載於其中一面,而另一面則為素面,膠囊的藥物資訊載於其外側,但其外形為兩個半球形中間夾一圓柱形,易於滾動。不論那一種型態的藥物,若放置藥物時未刻意地將藥物資訊朝向攝影鏡頭,攝影鏡頭對藥物 拍攝時,往往難以清楚取得完整的藥物資訊影像。另外,目前業界的某些藥物辨識裝置大多不便移動,且難以讓使用者輕鬆地放置及取出藥物,尤其是使用者需在狹窄的工作環境操作這類藥物辨識裝置,更加不便且更易出錯。 In order to solve the above problems, one method currently adopted in the industry is to capture an image of the drug through a camera lens, generate a feature vector of the drug image, and then compare the feature vector with other feature vectors in the database to determine the type of drug. General medicine includes two types of tablets and capsules. Usually, the drug information of the tablet is only contained on one side, while the other side is plain. The drug information of the capsule is contained on the outside, but its shape is in the middle of two hemispheres. Clip a cylindrical, easy to roll. Regardless of the type of drug, if the drug information is not intentionally directed toward the camera lens when placing the drug, the camera lens will When shooting, it is often difficult to clearly obtain complete drug information images. In addition, most of the current drug identification devices in the industry are inconvenient to move, and it is difficult for users to easily place and take out the drugs, especially when users need to operate such drug identification devices in a narrow working environment, which is more inconvenient and error-prone.
有鑑於此,如何改善藥物辨識的上述難題,提供一種能大幅度地降低給藥錯誤的機率,且以最低程度影響給藥流程的藥物辨識技術,為本發明所屬技術領域亟待解決的問題。 In view of this, how to improve the above-mentioned problem of drug identification and provide a drug identification technology that can greatly reduce the probability of drug administration errors and minimally affect the drug administration process is an urgent problem to be solved in the technical field of the present invention.

The
本發明未限制設置單板電腦19的位置。單板電腦19可設置於殼體11的內部(例如:殼體11內的底部、上殼體11a的內部)或外部。儘管本發明未限制設置單板電腦19的位置,但單板電腦19係電性連接至攝影模組15、17及輸出單元21。單板電腦19為整合了一微處理器(或其他各種處理器、中央處理單元、數位訊號處理器)、一儲存器、一輸入輸出介面及一電源模組之一印刷電路板。於其他實施方式中,若單板電腦19不包含電源模組,則藥物投放暨攝影裝置1需包含一電源模組以提供電力至攝影模組15、17、單板電腦19及輸出單元21。
The present invention does not limit the location where the
另外,本發明亦未限制設置輸出單元21的位置。類似地,輸出單元21可設置於殼體11的內部或外部。輸出單元21可為一顯示器(例如:發光二極體(Light-Emitting Diode;LED)顯示器、液晶顯示器(Liquid Crystal Display;LCD),但不以此為限)、一燈號、一揚聲器或/及一無線收發器,但不限於此。應理解,輸出單元21的類型會影響到其設置的位置。舉例而言,若輸出單元21為一顯示器,則其設置的位置需讓使用者能觀看到顯示器的內容。再舉例而言,若輸出單元21為一揚聲器,則其可設置於殼體11的內部或外部,但需讓使用者能聽到揚聲器所發出的聲音。

In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the user to take out the medicine, the
需說明者,於某些實施方式中,若不考慮放置藥物的便利性,可不於殼體11上形成上開口11c。同理,於某些實施方式中,若不考慮取出藥物的便利性,可不於殼體11上形成下開口11d,且可不設置轉軸29。
It should be noted that, in some embodiments, if the convenience of placing medicines is not considered, the
於某些實施方式中,為了取得品質較佳的影像,藥物投放暨攝影裝置1的殼體11由一不透光材質形成,且藥物投放暨攝影裝置1還包含二光源模組23、25,如第2D圖所示。光源模組23、25可為各種能進行照明之發光設備(例如:LED燈)。光源模組23係設置於殼體11的內部,且位於置藥層13的上表面13a的上方,用以照亮置藥層13的上表面13a。光源模組25係設置於殼體11的內部,且位於置藥層13的下表面13b的下方,用以照亮置藥層13的下表面13b。為了達到更佳的照明效果,光源模組23、25皆可環繞地設置於殼體11內。

為便於理解,請參第3圖,其係描繪藥物辨識裝置3之架構示意圖。詳細而言,藥物辨識裝置3包含一收發介面31及一處理器33,其中處理器33電性連接至收發介面31。收發介面31為任何能與藥物投放暨攝影裝置1進行資料收送之介面,例如:無線收發介面。處理器33可為各種處理器、中央處理單元、微處理器或本發明所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者所知悉之其他計算裝置。
For ease of understanding, please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a schematic diagram depicting the structure of the
藥物辨識裝置3透過收發介面31取得影像I1、I2。接著,處理器33
將影像I1、影像I2輸入一個已經過訓練之機器學習模型,藉此決定該至少一藥物之一辨識結果。該機器學習模型可為一卷積神經網路(Convolutional Neural Network;CNN)模型、一循環神經網路(Recurrent Neural Network;RNN),但不以此為限。本發明所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者皆熟知各種機器學習模型之訓練方式,故不詳述。
The
舉例而言,可利用一藥物資料庫所儲存之各種藥物的資訊(例如:藥物的名稱、顏色、形狀及大小)來訓練機器學習模型。處理器33將影像I1、I2輸入該機器學習模型後,該機器學習模型會辨識影像I1包含至少一第一物件,且辨識出各該第一物件的顏色、形狀及大小。另外,該機器學習模型會辨識出影像I2包含至少一第二物件,且辨識出各該第二物件的顏色、形狀及大小。需說明者,處理器33可根據攝影模組15、17各自與置藥層13間的距離,計算出各該第一物件的大小及各該第二物件的大小。該機器學習模型再根據各該第一物件及各該第二物件的顏色、形狀及大小來決定該至少一藥物之一辨識結果40。舉例而言,辨識結果40可為各該至少一藥物之藥名。再舉例而言,辨識結果40可為有哪幾種藥物,以及各種藥物有幾顆。
For example, the information of various medicines stored in a medicine database (such as the name, color, shape and size of medicines) can be used to train the machine learning model. After the
隨後,藥物辨識裝置3的收發介面31會將辨識結果40傳送至藥物投放暨攝影裝置1,藥物投放暨攝影裝置1的單板電腦19則會接收辨識結果40。藥物投放暨攝影裝置1的輸出單元21可輸出與辨識結果40相關之一訊號。舉例而言,輸出單元21可輸出(例如:顯示、發出聲音)辨識出來的各該至少一藥物之藥名。再舉例而言,輸出單元21可輸出(例如:顯示、發出聲音)有哪幾種藥物,以及各種藥物有幾顆。
Subsequently, the
於某些實施方式中,藥物辨識系統可採用其他內容作為辨識結果40。具體而言,藥物投放暨攝影裝置1還包含一輸入介面27,且輸入介面27電性連接至單板電腦19。藥物投放暨攝影裝置1可透過輸入介面27取得所預期的一藥物資訊。舉例而言,輸入介面27可為一條碼掃描器,使用者可透過輸入介面27掃描一藥袋條碼,以取得所預期的藥物資訊。需說明者,該藥袋條碼可為一維條碼(Barcodes)或二維條碼(QR-codes)。
In some embodiments, the drug recognition system can use other content as the
於這些實施方式中,單板電腦19還可將所預期的藥物資訊傳送至藥物辨識裝置3。藥物辨識裝置3透過收發介面31從藥物投放暨攝影裝置1接收該藥物資訊。處理器33利用該機器學習模型對影像I1、I2進行藥物辨識時,還會參考該藥物資訊來決定該藥物之辨識結果40。具體而言,該機器學習模型係先辨識出各該至少一藥物之藥名(或有哪幾種藥物,以及各種藥物有幾顆),再與該藥物資訊以決定出辨識結果40。換言之,此時的辨識結果40為給藥是否正確,而輸出單元21可根據辨識結果40顯示給藥為正確或錯誤。若辨識結果40為給藥錯誤,輸出單元21還可產生一警示訊號。
In these embodiments, the single-
在某些實施方式中,單板電腦19不會將所預期的藥物資訊傳送至藥物辨識裝置3。單板電腦19所接收的辨識結果40為該機器學習模型所辨識出的各該至少一藥物的藥名(或有哪幾種藥物,以及各種藥物有幾顆)。單板電腦19將所預期的藥物資訊與所接收的辨識結果40進行比對,輸出單元21再根據比對的結果輸出給藥為正確或錯誤的訊號,茲不贅言。
In some embodiments, the
綜上所述,本發明所提供的藥物辨識系統由藥物投放暨攝影裝置1取得所欲檢查的至少一藥物的二張影像,再由藥物辨識裝置3基於該二張影像對該至少一藥物進行辨識。本發明所提供的藥物投放暨攝影裝置1可讓使用者容
易地將欲辨識的至少一藥物放置於置藥層13上(例如:將藥物擲入藥物投放暨攝影裝置1,藥物便自動地掉落至置藥層13)。當置藥層13上被放置該至少一藥物時,單板電腦19控制攝影模組15進行拍攝以產生影像I1,且控制攝影模組17進行拍攝以產生影像I2。由於攝影模組15、17分別面對置藥層13的上表面13a及下表面13b,因此可取得各該至少一藥物的完整影像資訊。藥物辨識裝置3取得影像I1、I2後再將之輸入至一機器學習模型以決定該至少一藥物之一辨識結果。由於影像I1、I2涵蓋了各該至少一藥物的完整影像資訊,因此機器學習模型能夠做出精準的辨識結果。
To sum up, the drug identification system provided by the present invention obtains two images of at least one drug to be inspected by the drug delivery and
除了能夠提供精準且穩定的辨識結果,本發明所提供之藥物投放暨攝影裝置1容易操作(使用者僅需將藥物擲入藥物投放暨攝影裝置1即可),且易於攜帶。因此,使用者可於工作環境中任意地移動藥物投放暨攝影裝置1,便於使用者在不同的地方進行藥物辨識,可滿足使用者在藥局等狹窄空間時的工作需求。
In addition to providing accurate and stable identification results, the drug delivery and
