Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for automated pill identification using lighting devices and machine learning routines. A computing device may selectively control illumination of a pill provided at an imaging position by a pill dispensing system. The computing device may direct an imaging device to capture image data of the pill during illumination of the pill. Also, the computing device may generate a digital fingerprint of the pill and determine an identity of the pill based at least in part on a comparison of the digital fingerprint to a digital fingerprint library. A machine learning routine may be applied to improve future detection of the identity of the pill.
