1. An augmented reality device comprising:
a camera configured to obtain a plurality of image frames of a scene;
a display;
a memory storing information about a preset object; and
at least one processor,
wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
recognize at least one preset object corresponding to the information about the preset object from a first image frame from among the plurality of image frames obtained through the camera,
obtain a mask by segmenting an area of the recognized at least one preset object from the first image frame,
obtain a blur image in which an area other than the area of the at least one preset object is blurred, the blur image being obtained by rendering a second image frame obtained after the first image frame by using the mask during a preset first time period, and
control the display to display the blur image during the preset first time period,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to display the second image frame in an original state without rendering during a preset second time period.
