We are in the process of opening a family entertainment center where your membership card will be RFID. The scanners will be at cash registers, customer service desks & on games. Wanna play a game? Pass your card by the scanner, do it again to confirm & $.50 is deducted from your account. The range on the scanners will be about 2 inches. How damn hard do you think it is going to be for me to troubleshoot the thing not working when some guy doesn't mention that he is wearing an RFID blocking watch? Or even worse, they make the things too damn strong & no machines work in a 12' radius around this guy. Somebody please design an 'RFID Blocker Detector'. I don't care if they make one. I don't care if people wear one. I just can't have people wearing them in my facility.
