The algorithms for examination of the density and chosen parameters of movement of sperm cell were elaborated and implemented. The conducted research is a part of a work on a computer system for analysis of semen. The system will allow for an increase of the preciseness of examination thanks to the exact specification of numerical values of chosen parameters. Additional advantage of the system is a shorter time of the examination. Nowadays, the basic type of examination is an estimated analysis of parameters of semen done by visual observation of a sample. This type of examination is based on a subjective assessment of an image by a physician. Moreover the registration of images in visual analysis is not possible.
