Abstract
A method includes capturing, by an image-capturing device, a one or more images of at least a portion of a pharmacy workstation. The method also includes identifying, by a processor in communication with the image capturing device, objects of interest in a first image of the one or more images and classifying, by the processor, the detected objects of interest using a convolutional neural network associated with the processor. The method also includes identifying, by the processor, a boundary defining an opening of a container in a second image of the one or more images. The method also includes updating, by the processor, an objects in container list based on a determination that at least one of the classified objects passed the boundary.
