Shape and Silhouette Optimization
Face recognition systems perform better when objects have a clear silhouette. That means medal shape matters as much as surface design.
Best practices include:
- Using recognizable outlines (circle, shield, custom sport shape)
- Avoiding overly thin or fragmented edges
- Keeping symmetry or balanced asymmetry
- Ensuring ribbon does not hide the medal shape
For running medals, event organizers often choose bold shapes like shields or stadium-inspired outlines because they are easier to detect in crowd shots.
