A method for displaying objects, applicable to an electronic device and comprising: detecting (S101), in pieces of video data to be displayed in a first display region, if there are video frames that contain objects of predefined types; if video frames that contain objects of the predefined types are detected, extracting (S102) the objects of the predefined types from the detected video frames; displaying (S103) the extracted objects in sub-regions of a second display region that is different from the first display region, with each object being displayed in one of the sub-regions; and wherein extracting (S102) the objects of the predefined types from the detected video frames, comprises: extracting objects of the predefined types that are different from reference objects from the detected video frames, wherein the reference objects are of the predefined types and are extracted from previously detected video frames, wherein after displaying (S103) the extracted objects in sub-regions of a second display region, the method further comprises: obtaining (S104) an object selection instruction comprising a target type for a selected object, wherein the target type is one of the predefined types; identifying (S105) objects of other types than the target type from the extracted objects being displayed in the second display region according to the object selection instruction; and removing (S106) the objects of other types from the second display region. detecting (S101), in pieces of video data to be displayed in a first display region, if there are video frames that contain objects of predefined types; if video frames that contain objects of the predefined types are detected, extracting (S102) the objects of the predefined types from the detected video frames; displaying (S103) the extracted objects in sub-regions of a second display region that is different from the first display region, with each object being displayed in one of the sub-regions; and wherein extracting (S102) the objects of the predefined types from the detected video frames, comprises: extracting objects of the predefined types that are different from reference objects from the detected video frames, wherein the reference objects are of the predefined types and are extracted from previously detected video frames, wherein after displaying (S103) the extracted objects in sub-regions of a second display region, the method further comprises: obtaining (S104) an object selection instruction comprising a target type for a selected object, wherein the target type is one of the predefined types; identifying (S105) objects of other types than the target type from the extracted objects being displayed in the second display region according to the object selection instruction; and removing (S106) the objects of other types from the second display region. obtaining (S104) an object selection instruction comprising a target type for a selected object, wherein the target type is one of the predefined types; identifying (S105) objects of other types than the target type from the extracted objects being displayed in the second display region according to the object selection instruction; and removing (S106) the objects of other types from the second display region. <EOS>
