So, I used this in Tampa Bay at a baseball game this summer.
There is an attendant standing there to check ID's. You still have to line up to get in.
You tap your card which activates the sensors. The sensors track your motion throughout the area. When you grab a drink off the shelf, other sensors in the fridge track how much weight you took. If you put anything pack, it tracks that too.
When the motion sensors sense you're out of the area it will charge your card for whatever weight is associated with you and your group.
Frankly, it was creepy and I hated using it. I will not be using this at the 'Dome. Something about normalizing this kind of tracking technology just doesn't sit right with me. I'm sure this post will be laughed at in the future but just giving my honest take on it as someone who used it.
