Claim 11:
12. A driving method of a display panel, wherein the display panel comprises a first display region, a second display region, and a control device;
the first display region is on a side of the second display region,
the second display region comprises N display sub-regions, the control device is connected to the first display region and the second display region, respectively, and N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 3,
the first display region comprises a plurality of first pixel units, and the plurality of first pixel units are defined by an intersection of X1 horizontally arranged first gate lines and Y vertically arranged data lines;
the second display region comprises a plurality of second pixel units, and the plurality of second pixel units are defined by an intersection of X2 horizontally arranged second gate lines and the Y vertically arranged data lines;
the first display region is on a side of all of the N display sub-regions of the second display region along an extending direction of the Y vertically arranged data lines, and the N display sub-regions in the second display region are sequentially arranged along the extending direction of the Y vertically arranged data lines, wherein the N display sub-regions of the second display region includes a first display sub-region and a second display sub-region; and
wherein X1, X2 and Y are positive integers; and
the first display region is a waveguide display region, the first display region further comprises N light sources, and the N light sources are arranged at least on one side of the first display region in an extension direction of the X1 horizontally arranged first gate lines;
the second display region is a liquid crystal display region or an organic light-emitting diode display region,
the driving method comprises:
controlling display of the first display region and display of the second display region in N time intervals within one frame period, respectively, and
controlling the display of the first display region and display of an i-th display sub-region in the second display region in an i-th time interval, wherein 1≤i≤N,
wherein controlling the display of the first display region and the display of the second display region in the N time intervals within the one frame period, comprises:
in a first sub-interval of a first time interval within the one frame period, sequentially sending scanning signals to the X1 horizontally arranged first gate lines of the first display region to control the display of the first display region;
in a second sub-interval immediately adjacent to the first sub-interval of the first time interval within the one frame period, sequentially sending scanning signals to the X2 horizontally arranged second gate lines of the first display sub-region of the second display region to control the display of the first display sub-region;
in a first sub-interval of a second time interval immediately adjacent to the second sub-interval of the first time interval within the one frame period, sequentially sending scanning signals to the X1 horizontally arranged first gate lines of the first display region to control the display of the first display region; wherein the X1 horizontally arranged first gate lines of the first display region being sent scanning signals in the first sub-interval of the second time interval and the X1 horizontally arranged first gate lines of the first display region being sent scanning signal in the first sub-interval of the first time interval are identical gate lines; and
in a second sub-interval immediately adjacent to the first sub-interval of the second time interval within the one frame period, sequentially sending scanning signals to the X2 horizontally arranged second gate lines of the second display sub-region of the second display region to control the display of the second display sub-region, and during the second sub-interval of the second time interval, scanning signals are not sent to the X2 horizontally arranged second gate lines of the first display sub-region of the second display region;
wherein the first display sub-region and the second display sub-region are different display sub-regions of the second display region, and are adjacent to each other without being separated by the waveguide display region,
wherein during the second sub-interval of the first time interval and the second sub-interval of the second time interval, scanning signals are sent to different X2 horizontally arranged second gate lines of different display sub-regions of the second display region.
