A process for the automatic and continuous identification, sorting and counting of small size particles, particularly biological materials, comprises preparing and depositing in a continuous process a succession of samples on a continuous mobile rest, spreading them out in the viewing path of a microscope, recording images of the samples produced by the microscope using a video system, dividing the image of each sample into a rectangular array of pixels, analysing the afore-said image according to pattern recognition techniques, and treating the results of the analysis statistically, digitizing and delivering them to an operator.
