Since its foundation, Trimaran has always invested in in-house research and development with the prospects of constantly improving company progress in the fields of computer graphics and visual effects.

In 1993, with the support of the CNC, Trimaran developed the application WAVER for the dynamic simulation of fluids, used for the making of the film by the same name which received first prize in the Wavefront competition organized during Siggraph 1994.

In 1995, Trimaran participated in the project TRACKER, resulting in a first application capable of tracking, that is to say, 2D automatic tracking of key points in the image and the re-creation of 3D camera angles.

From the year 2000 - 2001, Trimaran worked on the project ODYSSEY, for the development of a content management tool, sponsored by PRIAMM.

In 2005, the project FxShare, sponsored by RIAM, set up an application bearing the same name that became a daily interface used for the exchange of audio and video media between clients and partners.

As of 2004, Trimaran continued its development of tracking systems, this time for the outdoor sports world via the visualization a race in real time.

In 2006, these developments were infused into a collaborative project called GEORACING, with a Dutch partner and Telecom ParisTech, identified under the name CAP DIGITAL, EUREKA, sponsored by OSEO and then by ANR-RIAM.

In 2009, the endeavor continued with G.T.S., bearing the name EUROSTARS / EUREKA / CAP DIGITAL, sponsored by OSEO, under contract until 2011.

Today, the R&D team at Trimaran is seconded by freelance engineers depending on their specialities and the company’s needs.
