Tampere, Finland – August 21, 2025 – Seyond, a global innovator in traffic detection and actuation, is proud to announce the rapid deployment of SIMPL, its cutting-edge Lidar-based traffic detection solution, across seven intersections in Finland. This marks a key milestone in the region’s move toward smarter, safer mobility.
This swift rollout was made possible thanks to the outstanding work of Normivalaistus (Normi), Seyond’s trusted partner in Finland, whose on-the-ground expertise, responsiveness, and deep understanding of local requirements enabled the seamless integration of SIMPL with La Semaforica’s Cartesio traffic light controllers in a record timeframe.
The integration enables precise and reliable traffic detection using high-fidelity LiDAR technology, offering municipalities and road operators in the region a smarter, more adaptive way to manage intersections. By combining Seyond’s advanced detection capabilities with the robustness of La Semaforica’s Cartesio traffic controllers, cities can now benefit from improved traffic flow, reduced congestion, and increased safety for all road users, including pedestrians and cyclists.
“This achievement highlights just how fast progress can happen when strong teams collaborate together,” said Philip Lassner, Head of Global ITS Business. “Normi’s dedication and execution have been instrumental in bringing advanced traffic detection to life in Finland.
“We’re proud to be part of this pioneering deployment of Lidar-based traffic detection technology in Finland. Our role has been to bridge global innovation with local implementation, ensuring that the technology not only works, but truly meets the needs of Finnish cities and authorities”, said Jukka-Pekka Alanissi, Business Director ITS at Normivalaistus.”
Seyond continues to accelerate its European expansion, collaborating with forward-thinking cities and organizations committed to adopting the next generation of intelligent traffic systems.
