  • Patent number: 11955055
    Abstract: A display panel driving method includes: obtaining a target grayscale value of each pixel unit in picture data of a frame to be displayed; determining, based on the target grayscale value of the pixel unit in the picture data of the frame to be displayed, a target pixel unit row that needs luminance compensation in the frame to be displayed; and if a display panel is driven to display a picture of the frame to be displayed, when a non-target pixel unit row is scanned, outputting, through scanning lines corresponding to the non-target pixel unit row, scanning signals with turn-on voltages each equal to a first turn-on voltage; and when a target pixel unit row is scanned, outputting, through scanning lines corresponding to the target pixel unit row, scanning signals with turn-on voltages higher than the first turn-on voltage.

    Abstract: A navigation path determining method and apparatus, a device, a storage medium, and a program product are provided. A navigation grid map is obtained corresponding to an application. The navigation grid map is marked with a primary region and a secondary region. A passage level of the primary region allows passage of virtual objects under volume levels. The secondary region includes a plurality of sub-secondary regions at different passage levels. The passage levels of the sub-secondary regions correspond to different maximum volume levels. At least one guide grid corresponding to the target grid is obtained for a target grid corresponding to a target virtual object. The target grid is located in the secondary region. Based on the guide grid, a navigation path of the target virtual object between the target grid and the primary region is determined. The present subject matter can ensure non-clipping of virtual objects.
