  • Title: Augmented Reality: Real-Time Information Concerning Medication Consumed by a Patient.
    Author: Diodati G, Gómez A, Martínez M, Luna D, González Bernaldo de Quiros F.
    Journal: Stud Health Technol Inform; 2015; 216():896. PubMed ID: 26262198.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes a mobile prototype capable of recognizing characters from a photograph of a medication package. The prototype was built to work on the iOS platform and was developed using Objective-C and C programming languages. The prototype, capable of recognizing text out of an image, included image processing algorithms, text processing algorithms, and techniques to search and handle information from a database. This prototype is presented as an option for capturing reliable and validated information by using new technologies available to the general population.
