News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors:“Many medications in a pharmacy are supplied from the manuf acture in a ready to use container. Aftera doctor writes a prescription the pha rmacy fulfills the prescription for the patient. Typical prescriptioncontainers in the US pharmacy market are removed from a storage location by a pharmacy tec hnicianand a label is applied to the container by the technician. The container s come in many shapes and sizes,which makes automated labeling difficult withou t extensive programing of a robot or other mechanicalcomplexities. For example, a pharmacy may supply prescriptions in pill bottles, liquid medicine bottles, blister packs, boxes, etc. Each of these containers may come in different sizes d epending on the amount of pills or volume of liquid medicament distributed. Furt her, these containers may be made of any numbersof materials (such as glass or plastic) with varying thicknesses.
