The invention relates to a charging bow charging system and method based on machine vision localization, the system comprises a charging bow, an image acquisition device and a control unit, and the control unit comprises a vision localization module, a path calculation module, a movement auxiliary module and a connection control module. The actual position information of the to-be-charged vehicle is obtained through the visual positioning module according to the top view image of the vehicle roof, then the moving path data is obtained through the path calculation module, and then the moving auxiliary signal is sent through the moving auxiliary module according to the moving path data so as to assist in driving the to-be-charged vehicle to move to the automatic charging range of the charging bow. And finally, the charging bow is driven by the connection control module to act to be connected with the power receiving bar of the to-be-charged vehicle, and charging is started. Compared with the prior art, auxiliar
