SDI is an innovative product and services company located in Toronto, Ontario. SDI’s core focus lies at the intersection between computation, communication, and imaging.

Our commercial imaging products are: Glogger, a mobile multimedia social networking framework; and OpenVIDIA, a platform for high-performance general purpose computing on NVIDIA hardware, achieving up to 30x the performance of CPU-based computation for data-intensive applications.

Other SDI products, still in the commercialization phase, are: the Hydraulophone, a water based pipe-organ flute, and the WashBus, a design for a mobile decontamination facility.

Smaller hydraulophones are already selling internationally, however SDI’s commercialization effort is in the larger versions, such as the landmark hydraulophone FUNtain that is the centerpiece of Teluscape, a $10MM outdoor park in front of the Ontario Science Centre. The price of an architectural hydraulophone is approximately $1.2MM.

The pre-cursor to the WashBus, a fixed decontamination facility design, has been constructed on Capitol Hill; Steve Mann designed the facility and served as a consultant on the project.
