Lyrtech is a digital signal processing development company based in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. Its Innovator division, acquired in 2006, for nearly 3M$, was sold back for roughly 300,000$ in late 2007, as part of a restructuration plan designed to save the company. Lyrtech designs and produces electronics systems for audio processing, video processing, networking, voice over IP processing, and wireless communications. In addition, Lyrtech develops aerospace and military electronics for applications including geolocation, missile warning systems, and laser warning receivers.

In November 2006 Lyrtech released a small form factor software defined radio development platform in partnership with Texas Instruments and Xilinx. [1]
