Abstract:
An image forming apparatus has an operation portion, an operation sensing portion, a human detecting portion, and a sensing period adjusting portion. The operation portion accepts operation by a user. The operation sensing portion senses operation on the operation portion. The human detecting portion detects the presence of a human body within a previously set detection distance. The sensing period adjusting portion adjusts a operation sensing period of the operation sensing portion based on the detection distance of the human detecting portion.

Claim (Index 2):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n operation modes of the image forming apparatus include: a normal mode in which the image forming apparatus performs normal operation by supplying electric power to all constituent elements; and a power-saving mode in which the image forming apparatus performs power-saving operation by supplying electric power to a part of the constituent elements, wherein the sensing period adjusting portion adjusts, in the power-saving mode, the operation sensing period of the operation sensing portion based on the detection distance of the human detecting portion, and the sensing period adjusting portion sets, in the normal mode, the operation sensing period of the operation sensing portion shorter than the sensing period in the power-saving mode.
