Patent number: 11637997Abstract: A projection apparatus executes a first processing and a second processing on image signal received from an external device, projects an image based on the image signal processed by an image processor, and switches an operation mode of the projection apparatus to a first mode, which is a low-latency mode for suppressing a delay in displaying an image, and a second mode, which is not the low-latency mode. The image processor maintains the first processing and stops the second processing in response that the operation mode of the projection apparatus is switched to the first mode from a state in which the operation mode is the second mode and the first processing and the second processing are executed.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2021Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Assignee: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Tomoaki Komiyama
