Abstract
An electronic apparatus includes a transmission unit, a reception unit, and a controller. The transmission unit transmits a transmission wave. The reception unit receives a reflected wave of the transmission wave reflected by an object. The controller operates the transmission unit in one of a plurality of operation modes having different detection distances. When the reflected wave is received by the reception unit, the controller determines a distance between the electronic apparatus and the object, based on the transmission wave and the reflected wave. The controller operates the transmission unit in an operation mode having the detection distance that includes the distance to the object and is the shortest, from among the plurality of operation modes.
