Abstract
A gate device is provided which prevents unauthenticated users from passing. The gate device is provided with an acquisition unit, an authentication request unit, a determination unit and a gate control unit. The acquisition unit acquires biological information of a person to be authenticated who is in an authentication area. The authentication request unit transmits to a server device an authentication request that contains the acquired biological information. The determination unit detects a person approaching the local gate device by using a sensor for detecting approaching persons, and determines whether or not the approaching person and the person to be authenticated are the same person. If authentication by the server device is successful and the approaching person and the authenticated person are the same person, then the gate control unit controls the gate to allow passage of the authenticated person.
