Pill Counting & Prescription Verification

The Eyecon™ revolutionizes prescription counting and filling via a tabletop automated pill counter.

Machine Vision Company provided vision technology to GSE Scale Systems, a leading manufacturer of pharmaceutical counting scales, for the accurate counting of pills for pharmacies. The technology is incorporated into the Eyecon™, a precision pharmacy scale used by pharmacies to ensure the correct pill count for each prescription dispensed.

MVC is an authorized reseller of the Eyecon. Contact us for purchasing information.
