Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic apparatus comprises a projecting part to project an image, an illuminance sensor, a lighting part comprising a light source, a memory to store at least one instruction; and a processor configured to control the electronic apparatus by executing the at least one instruction stored in the memory. The processor is configured to control the illuminance sensor to obtain information on first illuminance corresponding to an external lighting device, control the illuminance sensor to obtain information on second illuminance corresponding to the image projected by the projecting part, and control the light source of the lighting part based on the information on the first illuminance and the information on the second illuminance.
