control the driver to change a position of the electronic apparatus and change a posture of the display based on the at least one parameter,

change the at least one parameter used to change the position of the electronic apparatus,

control the display to display a content, and

change the posture of the display based on a content type of the content changing and the user posture remaining unchanged,

wherein the content type comprises at least one of a general video, a user interface, a sports broadcast, or a game broadcast.

2. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a communication interface; and

a microphone,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

control the driver to move the electronic apparatus toward the user based on a user command being received from another electronic apparatus through the communication interface or the user command being received through the microphone, and

control the camera to capture a plurality of images at a predetermined time interval.

3. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

identify the user posture and a distance from the electronic apparatus to the user based on the plurality of images, and

stop an operation of the driver based on the distance from the electronic apparatus to the user corresponding to the user posture.

4. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

based on the user posture being a first posture, change the posture of the display based on at least one first parameter among the plurality of parameters, and

based on the user posture being a second posture, change the posture of the display based on at least one second parameter among the plurality of parameters.

5. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the content type comprises at least one of the sports broadcast or the game broadcast.

6. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to, based on the user posture being changed and a predetermined time elapsing, change the posture of the display based on the changed user posture.

7. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

control the camera to capture a plurality of images at a predetermined time interval,

acquire a predicted user posture at a predetermined time point from a current time point based on the plurality of images, and

change the posture of the display based on the user posture and the predicted user posture.

8. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a memory configured to store a first neural network model,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to identify the user posture by inputting the captured image to the first neural network model.

9. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a memory configured to store a second neural network model,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

acquire data on the posture of the display by inputting the plurality of parameters to the second neural network model, and

change the posture of the display based on the data on the posture of the display.

10. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising the user interface,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

based on a user command to change the posture of the display being received through the user interface, change the posture of the display based on the user command, and

update the second neural network model based on the plurality of parameters and the changed posture of the display.

11. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a microphone,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

control the camera to capture a plurality of images at a predetermined time interval, and

change the posture of the display based on a user gesture identified from the plurality of images, or based on a user voice to change the posture of the display received through the microphone.

12. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the camera is provided on one side of the display, and

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to change the posture of the display for the user or for a predetermined user body part included within a predetermined region in the captured image.

13. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a display posture driver,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display posture driver to change the posture of the display.

14. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the driver to change the position of the electronic apparatus based on movement of the user posture.

15. A control method of an electronic apparatus, the control method comprising:

capturing an image;

identifying a plurality of parameters related to a user based on the captured image,

identifying a user posture based on the plurality of parameters;

selecting at least one parameter among the plurality of parameters based on the user posture;

changing a position of the electronic apparatus and changing a posture of a display included in the electronic apparatus based on the at least one parameter;

changing the at least one parameter used to change the position of the electronic apparatus;

controlling the display to display a content; and

changing the posture of the display based on a content type of the content changing and the user posture remaining unchanged,

wherein the content type comprises at least one of a general video, a user interface, a sports broadcast, or a game broadcast.

16. An electronic apparatus comprising:

a memory configured to store instructions;

at least one processor configured to:

obtain an image captured by a camera;

identify a plurality of parameters related to a user based on the captured image,

identify a user posture based on the plurality of parameters,

select at least one parameter among the plurality of parameters based on the user posture,

control the electronic apparatus to change a position of the electronic apparatus and change a posture of a display based on the at least one parameter,

change the at least one parameter used to change the position of the electronic apparatus,

control the display to display a content, and

change the posture of the display based on a content type of the content changing and the user posture remaining unchanged,
