Paper describes the method of computer image recording, processing and analysis applied to determine basic geometrical properties of the seeds. Instead of an expensive method of image recording by video-camera coupled with image acquisition card, modified scanning method was used. Proposed image transformations and logical operations are available in relatively simple and easy accessible software and do not significantly affect the final image of tested seed shape and dimensions: linear measurement error did not exceed 0.35%. The numerical data on seed sample size, seed dimensions, surface and section perimeters are supplied on the output. Above mentioned quantities are necessary to determine basic operation parameters of modern equipment for seed separation and sowing.
