Claim One:
1. A non-transitory machine readable medium that stores a program that, when executed by a processor, performs medicine management operations comprising: setting a camera of an image capturing device unit by: extracting a jig block from a medicine image captured by the image capturing device unit; analyzing image elements of the jig block; and setting a capturing mode of the camera; registering medicine information of the medicine image captured by the image capturing device unit; and comparing medicine information of a compound medicine image captured by the image capturing device unit with registered medicine information to determine whether the compound medicine is abnormal by: recognizing an identification code per medicine package; retrieving medicine compounding information from a medicine compounding information server; confirming medicine pattern information of a medicine pattern analysis unit based on the medicine compounding information; capturing an image of the compound medicine per package using an image processing unit and collecting the captured medicine image; analyzing the collected medicine image to extract medicines into independent regions; and determining whether the captured medicine pattern information coincides with medicine pattern information of the medicine compounding information using a medicine pattern analysis unit by: detecting a contour line of an independent medicine region from the medicine image; measuring a tangential distance between the contour line and a center point of the medicine; calculating a histogram of the contour line of the medicine; and determining whether the histogram information of the medicine coincides with medicine information of the medicine compounding information.
