Lighting unit control method and device

The invention discloses an illumination unit control method and device, and the method comprises the steps: enabling a controller to respond to an illumination unit starting instruction, and enabling a first driver to light a preset light-emitting unit in a plurality of light-emitting units at the same time, so as to enable the illumination unit to display a preset shape. And the plurality of light-emitting units can be lightened in a scanning mode through the second driver, so that the lighting unit displays the target interaction information corresponding to the interaction scene. Therefore, under different conditions, the multiple light-emitting units can be lightened through different drivers in different driving modes, and the control flexibility of the lighting units is improved. Moreover, when the preset shape is displayed, the preset light-emitting unit can be lightened through the first driver at the same time, so that the service life of the preset light-emitting unit is prolonged.
