Abstract:
A projection apparatus includes a light source that emits light, a projection unit that projects an image on a projection surface based on the light emitted by the light source, a projection control unit that controls the light source and the projection unit, a control unit that controls the projection control unit based on schedule information where an operation of the projection apparatus and a time of performing the operation are associated in advance, and a storage unit that stores a number of operations of turning on/off the light source and a total lighting time of the light source. If the control unit performs a power-off operation of the projection apparatus based on the schedule information, the control unit controls whether to turn off the light source based on the power-off operation based on the number of the operations and the total lighting time.
