The invention relates to a stage light following control system, and particularly to a stage intelligent light following control system and a stage intelligent light following control method based on image pattern recognition. The stage intelligent light following control system and the stage intelligent light following control method settle the problems of difficult arrangement, complicated wiring, application range limitation, high application cost, low controlling real-time performance, and low accuracy. The stage intelligent light following control system based on image pattern recognition comprises the components of a high-resolution camera, an upper PC, stereo audio equipment, a first RS485 communication machine, a second RS485 communication machine, a third RS485 communication machine, a microprocessor, a pan/tilt spotlight system and an adjustable light system, wherein the output end of the high-resolution camera is connected with the input end of the upper PC through an audio line. The output end of the upper PC is connected with the input end of the stereo audio set through an audio line. The upper PC is bidirectionally connected with the first RS485 communication machine. The stage light following control system is suitable for stage light following control.
