Medicine Label Scanner with OCR

Photograph a strip, read the drug name, look up uses and side effects

2-3 weeks build

Overview

A mobile app that captures a medicine strip or carton, cleans the image with OpenCV, reads the printed text with OCR and fuzzy-matches the brand or salt name against a drug table. The result screen shows uses, typical dosage guidance and common side effects, with a clear note to follow the prescriber.

What makes it stand up

  • 01Preprocessing for glare, curved foil and low light before OCR
  • 02Fuzzy matching that tolerates OCR misreads of brand names
  • 03Salt-level lookup so generics and brands resolve to the same entry
  • 04Drug table seeded from public sources such as openFDA labels
  • 05Information-only screens that defer to the prescriber and pharmacist

Module breakdown

  1. 01

    Capture

    Flutter camera screen with crop guide and retake flow.

  2. 02

    Image cleanup

    Deskew, adaptive threshold and glare suppression.

  3. 03

    OCR and matching

    Tesseract text read plus edit-distance name matching.

  4. 04

    Drug database

    Normalised brand, salt, use and side-effect tables.

  5. 05

    Evaluation

    Character error rate and match accuracy on a labelled photo set.

After this, you will be able to

  • Explain why preprocessing matters more than the OCR engine choice
  • Defend your fuzzy-matching threshold with measured error cases
  • Demo a live scan from phone camera to drug information
