Abstract
An electronic apparatus includes a support unit, a movement unit that moves an apparatus supported by the support unit, a communication unit, and a control unit. In a case where a connection for wireless communication to a communication apparatus is established via the communication unit, the control unit controls the movement unit to move the apparatus supported by the support unit. The control unit controls the communication unit to receive information about movement of the communication apparatus from the communication apparatus. The control unit determines whether the support unit is supporting the communication apparatus based on the information about the movement of the communication apparatus.
