Projection apparatus, installed state detection method and medium
The present invention aims to make it possible to detect deterioration of a housing of a projection apparatus and to notify a user of the deterioration of the housing. A projection apparatus includes at least one processor and an acceleration sensor which detects an inclination of the projection apparatus, in which the processor performs the processes of acquiring a difference between i) a first detection value which is detected by the acceleration sensor in a case where the projection apparatus is installed on an installation surface and ii) a second value which is detected by the acceleration sensor at a time which comes after the installation of the projection apparatus with the projection apparatus on the installation surface, and in a case where the difference becomes more than a threshold value, controlling to notify a warning at a predetermined timing by functioning as a notification unit or to stop functions of the projection apparatus.
