Image recognition method and device applied to browser end

The invention discloses an image recognition method and device applied to a browser end, and relates to the technical field of computers. A specific embodiment of the method comprises the steps of compiling an image recognition module into a binary module through a module compiling mode; in response to the image service request, sending an image acquisition instruction to an image acquisition apparatus, and calling an image identification interface in the binary module; and receiving the image information acquired by the image acquisition apparatus, comparing the image information with the stored image information at the browser end through the image identification interface to obtain an identification result, and returning the identification result. According to the implementation mode, the capacity of the browser is expanded through WebAssembly, so that the browser can execute the compiled binary file; an existing image recognition scheme is integrated with a WebAssembly browser endexecuting a wam binary fi
