"Perfect Gate's system makes use of RFID smart tags to track customers' entry and exit from bicycle parking areas. Using RFID tags, each customer and bicycle is given a uniquely identified smart tag which is read by tag readers located at entry and exit of the site. "
"Bicycle parking areas which are common throughout Japan, are often located in the vicinity of railway stations, apartment blocks and other congested areas, due to the large number of people who use bicycles and the otherwise resulting clutter. These parking areas help to keep streets tidy but suffer from high staffing costs, inconvenient opening hours and theft."
BF is acting up, gotta go
