April 25, 2019
An electronic apparatus includes: a communication unit that communicates with another electronic apparatus in a non-contacting manner; and a power supply unit that supplies power to the other electronic apparatus in the non-contacting manner. When a power-supply target electronic apparatus is detected through a first polling performed by the communication unit, the electronic apparatus notifies the power-supply target electronic apparatus of the start of foreign object detection processing. After this notification, the electronic apparatus executes the foreign object detection processing to detect the presence of a foreign object that is not a power supply target through a second polling performed for a predetermined period by the communication unit. Based on a result of the foreign object detection processing, the electronic apparatus controls power supply from the power supply unit to the power-supply target electronic apparatus.
