Item 1.

Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D, dated March 28, 2019, as previously amended by Amendments No. 1 and No. 2 to Schedule 13D, with respect to the common stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock" or the "Shares"), of Duos Technologies Group, Inc. (the "Issuer"), filed by Norman H. Pessin, Sandra F. Pessin and Brian L. Pessin  Except as expressly amended below, the Schedule 13D, dated March 28, 2019, as previously amended, remains in effect

Item 2.

Identity and Background

This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D is being filed by and for Norman H. Pessin, Sandra F. Pessin, and Brian L. Pessin (each a "Reporting Person").  The address of each Reporting Person is set forth below:

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

This Amendment No. 3 is being filed in connection with (i) the increase of the beneficial ownership limitation upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock owned by Sandra F. Pessin from 4.99% to 9.99% and (ii) the increase of the beneficial ownership limitation upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock owned by Sandra F. Pessin and Brian L. Pessin from 4.99% to 19.99% (collectively, the “Beneficial Ownership Increases”).  The Beneficial Ownership Increases became effective on October 1, 2021 upon agreement with the Issuer.  The ownership percentages in this Amendment No. 3 assume (i) conversion of approximately 854 shares of Series B Preferred Stock owned by Sandra F. Pessin into 122,000 shares of Common Stock and (ii) conversion of all of the Series C Preferred Stock owned by Sandra F. Pessin and Brian L. Pessin as that would result in the highest beneficial ownership of Common Stock under the new increased limitations to which the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock are now subject.  Sandra F. Pessin would then not be able to convert her remaining shares of Series B Preferred Stock (which would otherwise be convertible into an additional 121,572 shares of Common Stock) due to the 9.99% ownership limitation applicable to it.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

The beneficial ownership percentages in this Amendment No. 3 are based on 3,595,924 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding on October 1, 2021.  Shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Series C Preferred Stock are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the owner thereof but not for any other person.

As of October 1, 2021, Norman H. Pessin beneficially owned 102,972 shares of Common Stock, or 2.86% of the total number of shares then deemed outstanding.

As of October 1, 2021, Sandra F. Pessin beneficially owned 466,157 shares of Common Stock, or 11.68% of the total number of shares then deemed outstanding, which consists of (i) 71,430 shares of Common Stock owned of record by her, (ii) 122,000 shares of Common Stock issuable, upon conversion of approximately 854 shares of Series B Preferred Stock owned of record by her, and (iii) 272,727 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 1,500 shares of Series C Preferred Stock owner of record by her.

As of October 1, 2021, Brian L. Pessin beneficially owned 165,911 shares of Common Stock, or 4.50% of the total number of shares then deemed outstanding, which consists of (i) 75,002 shares of Common Stock owned of record by him and (ii) 90,909 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 500 shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned of record by him.

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
