Abstract

A 3-dimensional image display device includes: a backlight unit; a barrier panel above the backlight unit and including unit barriers which selectively blocks light; a lenticular lens array above the barrier panel and including lenticular lenses, each having a principal point; a liquid crystal panel above the lenticular lens array; an eye tracking sensor which detects a position of eyes of a viewer and a distance between the principal point of the lenticular lenses and the eyes; and a controller which controls the backlight unit, the barrier panel and the liquid crystal panel based on an output of the eye tracking sensor, where the controller turns on and off the unit barriers such that light passes through the principal point of the lenticular lenses to apply a right-eye image to a right eye of the viewer and apply a left-eye image to a left eye of the viewer.
