According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for assisting object control using a two-dimensional camera, comprising the steps of: acquiring a two-dimensional image of a user's body from a two-dimensional camera; and determining a control target area with reference to a candidate target area specified on the basis of two-dimensional relative coordinate points respectively corresponding to a first body part and a second body part of the user in the two-dimensional image, wherein the candidate target area and the control target area are determined on a reference surface established with respect to the two-dimensional camera.
