| Abstract | Automated red blood cell (RBC) morphological analysis is a critical component of modern hematological di agnostics, enabling early identification of disorders such as anemia, sickle cell disease, thalassemia, and hereditary shape abnormalities. Manual microscopic examination suffers from subjectivity, inconsistent accuracy, and limited accessibility in low-resource healthcare environments. To address these chal lenges, this paper presents a fully automated, low-cost RBC classification system implemented on a Raspberry Pi using deep learning and a comprehensive image-processing pipeline. A USB digital microscope captures smear images, which undergo re sizing, denoising, contrast enhancement, illumination correction, segmentation, and normalization. A fine-tuned InceptionV3 CNN classifies RBCs into nine morphological categories, including sickle cells, elliptocytes, spherocytes, and target cells. A Streamlit interface provides real-time visualization, classification distribu tion plots, and automated PDF report generation. Trained on the Pathologics RBC dataset , the proposed model achieved 98.89% accuracy, precision of 1.0, recall of 1.0, and an F1-score of 1.0. Experimental evaluation confirms that embedded devices such as Raspberry Pi can effectively deploy deep-learning models for point-of-care medical diagnostics. |
