1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:
an antenna for non-contact communication with a communication medium, the communication medium storing first information; and
a touch panel that electrically detects a contact or a proximity of an object as an input detection function,
wherein the antenna is arranged around the touch panel, and outputs radio waves for the non-contact communication by receiving a power supply,
the information processing apparatus turns OFF the power supply to the antenna in response to the input detection function of the touch panel being turned ON,
the information processing apparatus turns OFF the input detection function of the touch panel in response to the power supply to the antenna being turned ON, and
an ON state of the power supply to the antenna and an ON state of the input detection function of the touch panel are exclusively controlled.
