A video stabilization method comprising: selecting a first area in a first image; determining at least one first feature point based on the first area, and performing feature point matching on the first image and a second image so as to obtain at least one feature point matching pair between the first image and the second image, each feature point matching pair including a first feature point of the first image and a second feature point of the second image; conducting motion parameter estimation based on the at least one feature point matching pair so as to obtain a motion parameter; and carrying out motion compensation with respect to the first image based on the motion parameter so as to acquire a first stable image after compensation, the video stabilization method being characterized in that: the selecting of a first area in the first image includes: conducting object detection in regard to the first image so as to obtain at least one object, wherein each of the at least one detected object is located in a different first area; and choosing at least one first area based on a type of the at least one detected object in said at least one first area being associated to a stationary object, each first area being assigned a weight value, wherein a stationary object in a first area receives a relatively high weight value while a moving object in a first area receives a relatively low weight value; and the determining at least one first feature point based on the first area includes: performing feature point detection on the chosen at least one first area so as to acquire at least one feature point; and using the weight values as ratios for selecting one or more feature points in the respective chosen at least one first area. selecting a first area in a first image; determining at least one first feature point based on the first area, and performing feature point matching on the first image and a second image so as to obtain at least one feature point matching pair between the first image and the second image, each feature point matching pair including a first feature point of the first image and a second feature point of the second image; conducting motion parameter estimation based on the at least one feature point matching pair so as to obtain a motion parameter; and carrying out motion compensation with respect to the first image based on the motion parameter so as to acquire a first stable image after compensation, the video stabilization method being characterized in that: the selecting of a first area in the first image includes: conducting object detection in regard to the first image so as to obtain at least one object, wherein each of the at least one detected object is located in a different first area; and choosing at least one first area based on a type of the at least one detected object in said at least one first area being associated to a stationary object, each first area being assigned a weight value, wherein a stationary object in a first area receives a relatively high weight value while a moving object in a first area receives a relatively low weight value; and conducting object detection in regard to the first image so as to obtain at least one object, wherein each of the at least one detected object is located in a different first area; and choosing at least one first area based on a type of the at least one detected object in said at least one first area being associated to a stationary object, each first area being assigned a weight value, wherein a stationary object in a first area receives a relatively high weight value while a moving object in a first area receives a relatively low weight value; and the determining at least one first feature point based on the first area includes: performing feature point detection on the chosen at least one first area so as to acquire at least one feature point; and using the weight values as ratios for selecting one or more feature points in the respective chosen at least one first area. performing feature point detection on the chosen at least one first area so as to acquire at least one feature point; and using the weight values as ratios for selecting one or more feature points in the respective chosen at least one first area.
