Vejle, Denmark — June 4, 2025 – Seyond, a global leader in lidar solutions, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with ATKI, Denmark’s trusted system integrator in traffic technology. This collaboration marks a significant step toward advancing smart traffic infrastructure across the Nordic region by introducing SIMPL, Seyond’s ITS Management Platform to Denmark.
Founded in 2004, ATKI has earned a reputation for innovation and reliability in traffic counting, safety systems, and signal solutions. From intelligent LED signage to parking systems and people-counting technologies, ATKI has consistently delivered high-performance solutions tailored to the evolving needs of cities and municipalities across Denmark.
This partnership will combine ATKI’s deep local expertise and trusted integration services with Seyond’s state-of-the-art LiDAR-based detection system. SIMPL leverages artificial intelligence and high-fidelity LiDAR to deliver unmatched precision, reliability, and flexibility for modern traffic management.
“ATKI’s proven track record in delivering smart traffic solutions makes them the ideal partner to accelerate SIMPL adoption in the Danish market,” said Philip Lassner, Head of Global ITS Business at Seyond. “Together, we’re enabling accurate, adaptive, and sustainable traffic detection in Denmark.”
Why SIMPL is the Ideal Solution for Nordic Cities
- High Precision in All Conditions – LiDAR-based detection offers superior accuracy, even in challenging weather or lighting, making it ideal for Nordic climates.
- Cost-Effective Alternative to Inductive Loops – With only 2 LiDAR sensors required for most intersections and the ability to create as many virtual detections zones for vehicles and VRUs as required, SIMPL brings tremendous savings for cities and municipalities compared to other traffic detection systems like inductive loops.
- Future-Proof Platform – SIMPL is designed to scale, evolve, and integrate seamlessly with traffic light controllers and other smart infrastructure solutions.
- Sustainability at the Core – With its non-intrusive installation, low maintenance and ability to optimize traffic flow when integrated into traffic light controllers to reduce emissions, SIMPL supports greener urban development.
- Full Situational Awareness – Real-time data, multimodal detection, and AI-powered analytics empower cities to make faster, data-driven decisions.
“Our collaboration with Seyond enables us to offer Danish municipalities a forward-looking, reliable and resilient solution to traffic management,” said Erik Damgaard, Sales and R&D Manager, at ATKI. “With SIMPL, we can address growing demands for safer streets, improved mobility, and smarter infrastructure planning.”
This partnership underscores a shared commitment to innovation, safety, and sustainability. Together, Seyond and ATKI will support public authorities, city planners, and transportation agencies in shaping the future of intelligent mobility in Denmark and beyond.
