1. An electronic device, comprising:

  • a camera configured to capture a gesture of a user located in a field of view of the camera;

    a three-dimensional (3D) display unit configured to generate a plurality of virtual planes comprising one of a first virtual plane and a second virtual plane different from the first virtual plane, and display a plurality of objects on the plurality of virtual planes as a 3D image;

    a controller configured to change one of a display characteristic of the objects and a virtual plane characteristic based on the captured gesture and a gesture mode of the electronic device,wherein the display characteristic is one of a vertical location and a horizontal location of the objects within the one of the first and second virtual planes,wherein the virtual plane characteristic is a depth of the one of the first and second virtual planes, andwherein the gesture mode comprises;

    a first mode changing a position of the plurality of virtual planes in a 3D space, anda second mode changing a position of at least one of the plurality of objects from the first virtual plane to the second virtual plane in the 3D space,wherein the controller is further configured to execute a function based on the gesture mode when an attribute of the captured gesture is greater than a critical value, the attribute comprising at least one of a moving speed and a moving distance of the captured gesture.
