I wonder how many people will be accidentally passing through their proposed no barrier gates without knowing it? I can imagine a long line to talk to the gate attendant, "I didn't know there was a gate! Can I get a refund?" Or being charged and not even knowing it. I think there are many hurdles to cross before this becomes reality. As it is now, my phone using the Suica app has trouble being read if it is in a leather pouch for instance.

The first problem I see with this is, many phone cases are made to have IR protection to prevent distance hacking.

What will happen if it malfunctions, doesn’t recognize you? Will there be a way to prove yourself? If not, I see a great excuse to skip work!
