About Fencing Piste
Fencing Piste is the visual language of televised Olympic fencing since 2010: a single conductive strip spotlit white against a blacked-out hall, with the bout's only colour coming from the scoring apparatus. When a valid touch lands, one fencer's box flashes red, the other's green — two signal lights cutting through near-black. The HUD is deliberately spare. Geometric technical sans-serifs carry the score, the clock, and the priority indicators in sharp uppercase, never competing with the action. High contrast, no ornament, broadcast-grade clarity: every pixel is either dark hall, bright piste, or scoring signal.
