The invention belongs to the technical field of face recognition, and discloses a 3D dynamic portrait recognition monitoring device and method. The system comprises an image acquisition module, an image processing module, a human face feature point pickup module, a 3D human face modeling module, a central processing module, a wireless signal transmission module, a monitoring terminal, a database,a human face recognition and judgment module, a human face search module, a human face image storage module, an image classification module and a display module. According to the invention, the camerais used to obtain the human face image data, and the image is preprocessed, so that the definition of the image is improved, the 3D image recognition of the human face image in subsequent steps is facilitated, and the accuracy is improved; according to the method, the feature points of the human face are extracted through the feature point extraction program, the two-dimensional face image is converted into the 3D human face through the 3D face modeling technology, and the problem that the traditional two-dimensional image recognition precision is low is avoided.
