A system for automatic counting of non-overlapping objects irrespective of shape, size, and color is provided by imaging and computer subsystems. Objects to be counted are placed on a transparent surface disposed on a diffusing surface uniformly irradiated by electromagnetic radiation sources. Low intensity object shadows and high intensity object background regions are digitally imaged. The digital image is converted by a computing unit to a binary image and subjected to the Distance Transform to determine a count of the objects. Object identification verification is provided by comparing identification information obtained from a bar code associated with a supply container of the objects and identification information obtained from a digitally imaged written request.
