Heck from what i can tell all the pictures and video seem to cover exactly the same bike storage, and for some odd reason it's always empty when they film it. While it's a nice idea i think it's way too impractical.
This seems to be less dense than what turns out of most traditional bike parking systems, it's also much more expensive to build and maintain, and i don't even want to start thinking of how easy for it to just get stuck, miss read the tag on your bike, or heck for that RFID tag to simply just die / fall off during storage.
If you use something like a Santa Cruz racing frame with every part made out of carbon to commute to work, yeah the extra security is probably worth the costs when you deal with 10K$+ bikes, but as far as most commuting bikes I've seen in Japan and Asia in general nope, they aren't worth it.
This is a company that makes such systems: http://cycle-tree.jp/ They have more examples of installations.
