Abstract
An external instrument that wirelessly communicates with a projector is allowed to communicate with a communication counterpart other than the projector. A projector includes a projection section, a communication section, which wirelessly communicates with a first apparatus and communicates with a second apparatus, an evaluation section, which determines the destination of communication data received via the communication section, and a control section. In a case where the evaluation section determines that the destination of the communication data is the projector, the control section causes the projection section to project an image based on image data included in the communication data. In a case where the evaluation section determines that the destination of the communication data received from the first apparatus is not the projector, the control section causes the communication section to transmit the communication data to the second apparatus.
