	December 2011 Tandent demonstrates Trillien Analytics at the SIGGRAPH Asia Conference in Hong Kong - December 12 - 15. - Trillien™ Analytics
	October 2011 Tandent unveils Trillien LightBrush at the PhotoPlus Expo in New York, NY - October 27 - 29. - Trillien™ LightBrush™
	August 2011 Tandent Demonstrates Three Trillien products at SIGGRAPH 2011 in Vancouver, Canada - August 9 - 11. (Located at Booth 263) - Trillien™ for Face Recognition (SDK available) - Trillien™ for Graphics (Beta available) - Works with PhotoShop - Trillien™ for Nuke (Beta available)
	August 2011 Tandent releases Trillien for Graphics (Beta), which works with Abobe PhotoShop and Gimp software. The Trillien for Graphics is an automatic link between the Trillien application and Adobe Photoshop CS5. The plugin enables a user to move seamlessly between the two applications, providing the material and illumination as separate layers in a Photoshop document. Trillien for Photoshop gives users the full power of Trillien and the full range of manipulation tools available in Adobe Photoshop.
	August 2011 Tandent releases Trillien for Nuke (Beta), specifically designed as a plugin for The Foundry, Nuke software. The Trillien for Nuke is a fully integrated node that gives you access to both the Trillien process and the full range of manipulation and processing tools provided by Nuke. The Trillien for Nuke provides the same functionality as the standalone application, and provides outputs for both the material and illumination images. Users are then able to connect Nuke tools to manipulate the material and illumination separately. Trillien for Nuke makes texture mapping, illumination modification, and material color touch-up easier and more physically correct than modifying a standard image.
	June 2011 Tandent introduces its entrepreneurs program to work with outstanding individuals and teams innovating in computer vision and related fields. Read more at: www.tandentvision.com/entrepreneurs

It also now supports MS Windows.
	October 2010 - Tandent Demonstrates Trillien for Face Recognition at The Biometrics Exhibition and Conference 2010 in London, UK. Press Release - Trillien™ FR / Trillien™ Demonstrations of Trillien FR were enthusiastically received at the Biometrics Exhibition and Conference in London, UK. Trillien FR allows for face recognition in real world environments without the need for kiosks or other special lighting.
	September 2010 - Tandent Demonstrates Trillien at The Biometric Consortium 2010 in Tampa, Florida Tandent’s live demonstrations of Trillien FR, were viewed by fascinated attendees at the Biometirc Consortium 2010. Trillien’s real time face preprocessor permits face recognition in real world settings such as city street, office buildings and airports.
	July 2010 - Tandent Demonstrates Trillien FR , its Real Time Face Preprocessor Demo at SIGGRAPH 2010 in Los Angeles, CA. For the first time publically, Tandent demonstrated the Tandent for Face Recogintion Preprocessor for Face Recognition at the SIGGRAPH conference in Los Angles. Replacing input images with Tandent preprocessed images dramatically improves performance of face recognition systems operating in real world settings, eliminating the need for kiosks or other special face lighting in either the acquisition stage or the searchable database Tandent for Face Recognition is expected to accelerate much broader commercial deployment of face recognition technology in settings such as public transportation systems, airports, office buildings, sports arenas, city streets and other outdoor environments.
	June 2010 - Tandent Demonstrates Trillien: Real-Time Preprocessor for "Computer Vision Everywhere"™ at CVPR 2010 in San Francisco, CA. Tandent Vision Science Inc. today introduced revolutionary technology that fundamentally enhances the performance of computer vision systems and extends their application into many new settings. Demonstrated live and in real time at CVPR, Tandent Computer Vision Preprocessors dramatically improve the performance of computer vision systems in the uncontrolled illumination of the real world. Breakthrough Technology Tandent preprocessors operate between image capture and existing computer vision systems, providing an enhanced input for computer vision algorithms. By replacing normal input images with preprocessed images, Tandent technology dramatically improves the real-world performance of computer vision systems
