A distance-measuring apparatus is arranged to project light toward an object at a distance to be measured, receive reflected light from the object, and detect the distance to the measured object through arithmetic operation and integration. In the distance-measuring apparatus, an integrating capacitor discharge/charge to a maximum when a time necessary for a first integration is longer a minimum. In the detection of the distance to the object, when the time necessary for the first integration is longer than the minimum time, a first integration and a second integration by the integrating capacitor are carried out repeatedly.
