A method for recognizing an object, wherein the method is applied in a wearable device that is suitable to be worn on the head of a user, the method comprising: determining (S101) an object to be recognized; and when a preset condition is satisfied, locating (S102) and distinctly displaying the object to be recognized on a display of the wearable device at a position within a preset range from the object to be recognized, wherein the step of determining (S101) an object to be recognized comprises: recognizing a current object by the wearable device by determining that the user wearing the wearable device stares at the current object for a time period, and determining the object to be recognized by querying a pre-stored objects matching relation table according to information on the current object; or receiving information on a target object sent from an image recognition device, and determining the object to be recognized by querying a pre-stored objects matching relation table according to the information on the target object; the method being characterized in that the satisfaction of the preset condition comprises: detecting, after the step of determining (S101) the object to be recognized, that an angle variation of the wearable device exceeds a preset angle threshold when the user wearing the wearable device turns his head. determining (S101) an object to be recognized; and when a preset condition is satisfied, locating (S102) and distinctly displaying the object to be recognized on a display of the wearable device at a position within a preset range from the object to be recognized, wherein the step of determining (S101) an object to be recognized comprises: recognizing a current object by the wearable device by determining that the user wearing the wearable device stares at the current object for a time period, and determining the object to be recognized by querying a pre-stored objects matching relation table according to information on the current object; or receiving information on a target object sent from an image recognition device, and determining the object to be recognized by querying a pre-stored objects matching relation table according to the information on the target object; the method being characterized in that the satisfaction of the preset condition comprises: detecting, after the step of determining (S101) the object to be recognized, that an angle variation of the wearable device exceeds a preset angle threshold when the user wearing the wearable device turns his head. recognizing a current object by the wearable device by determining that the user wearing the wearable device stares at the current object for a time period, and determining the object to be recognized by querying a pre-stored objects matching relation table according to information on the current object; or receiving information on a target object sent from an image recognition device, and determining the object to be recognized by querying a pre-stored objects matching relation table according to the information on the target object; the method being characterized in that the satisfaction of the preset condition comprises: detecting, after the step of determining (S101) the object to be recognized, that an angle variation of the wearable device exceeds a preset angle threshold when the user wearing the wearable device turns his head. <EOS>
