ABSTRACT:
It is intended to provide a gate system which prevents an abuse of a storage medium such as a card carried by a user to pass through a gate and reduces the time to require for determining whether to permit passing so as not to cause jams when passing through the gate. The gate system includes: a user identification apparatus which identifies a registered user who is matched with a user who wants to pass through a gate from registered users; and a gate apparatus which forms the gate, wherein the user identification apparatus includes: an image pickup means which takes an image of the face of a passing user before the user reaches the gate; identification and verifying means which identifies a registered user from the taken image; and medium information sending means which sends medium information about a storage medium carried by the registered user to the gate apparatus, the information being stored in association with the identified registered user, and the gate apparatus includes: medium information receiving means which receives the medium information from the user identification apparatus; medium reading means which reads the medium information from the storage medium carried by the passing user; and validating and verifying means which verifies the read medium information against the received medium information by the medium information receiving means.
