Polygons

Polygon annotation is a technique used in computer vision to outline the exact shape of an object within an image by connecting multiple points to form a closed shape.


🔹 Key Features:

  • Allows precise, pixel-level object boundaries.
  • More accurate than bounding boxes for irregular or curved shapes.
  • Composed of multiple (x, y) coordinates connected in sequence.

🔹 Use Cases:

Retail: Identifying product outlines in shelf images.

Autonomous driving: Labeling vehicles, pedestrians, and road features.

Medical imaging: Segmenting organs or tumors with high accuracy.

Aerial imagery: Mapping land, buildings, or vegetation.
