The invention relates to a system, method and application for tracking waveforms, and belongs to the related technical field of geological disaster model tests. The system mainly comprises a wave generation mechanism, a plurality of high-speed cameras are arranged on the outer side of the wave generation mechanism, any high-speed camera is connected with a relay converter through an image signal transmission line, and the relay converter is communication with an analysis mechanism through an electronic signal transmission line. By designing the brand new structure, the high-speed cameras are used for obtaining dynamic wave images, and the problems that in the prior art, wave surface form parameters are hard to obtain for feedback design and regulate waveforms in various test systems are hard to catch are solved.
