4. The image projecting apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the plurality of sensors includes a first sensor and a second sensor spaced apart from each other in a horizontal direction on the image projecting apparatus,

wherein the processor is configured to:

obtain, through the first sensor, a first distance between the first sensor and the projection surface, and

obtain, through the second sensor, a second distance between the second sensor and the projection surface.

5. The image projecting apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the processor is configured to:

identify, based on a difference between the first distance and the second distance being greater than or equal to a predetermined value, a rotation direction of the image projecting apparatus based on the difference between the first distance and the second distance, and

provide a user interface to guide the user to rotate the image projecting apparatus based on the identified rotation direction.

6. The image projecting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

identify whether the identified shape corresponds to a predetermined condition; and

based on the identified shape not corresponding to the predetermined condition, control the optical output unit to project the processed image.

7. The image projecting apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to identify whether the identified shape corresponds to the predetermined condition based on at least one of whether a top side and a bottom side of the identified shape is in parallel, a length difference of a left side and a right side of the identified shape, and a gradient of each of the left side and the right side.

8. The image projecting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the image projecting apparatus includes an ultra short throw projector.

9. A method of controlling an image projecting apparatus, comprising:

projecting an output image;

based on data obtained through a plurality of sensors, obtaining a distance between each of the plurality of sensors and a projection surface on which the output image is projected;

obtaining, using a camera, an image corresponding to the projection surface;

based on the obtained distances and information on an object obtained based on the obtained image, processing the output image, the object corresponding to the output image projected on the projection surface; and

projecting the processed image,

wherein the processing comprises, based on a difference between the obtained distances and a predetermined value, identifying a shape of the object, and processing the output image based on the identified shape.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the information on the object includes the shape of the object.

11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

based on the difference between the obtained distances and a predetermined value, providing a user interface to guide an adjustment corresponding to a location of the image projecting apparatus.

wherein the obtaining the distance comprises:

obtaining, through the first sensor, a first distance between the first sensor and the projection surface; and

obtaining, through the second sensor, a second distance between the second sensor and the projection surface.

13. The method of claim 12 , further comprises:

identifying, based on a difference between the first distance and the second distance being greater than or equal to a predetermined value, a rotation direction of the image projecting apparatus based on the difference between the first distance and the second distance; and

providing a user interface to guide the user to rotate the image projecting apparatus based on the identified rotation direction.

14. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

identifying whether the identified shape corresponds to a predetermined condition,

wherein the projecting the processed image comprises, based on the identified shape not corresponding to the predetermined condition, projecting the processed image.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the identifying comprises identifying whether the identified shape corresponds to the predetermined condition based on at least one of whether a top side and a bottom side of the identified shape is in parallel, a length difference of a left side and a right side of the identified shape, and a gradient of each of the left side and the right side.

16. The method of claim 9 , wherein the image projecting apparatus includes an ultra short throw projector.
