  We propose a possible experimental setup for nonreciprocal electron transport
in a lateral spin valve due to noncoplanar distribution of magnetic moment (and
field) in the system. Some metals (Al, Cu) and semiconductors (GaAs, InSb etc.)
demonstrate spin accumulation even at room temperatures due to large spin flip
lengths (0.3--2.0 $\mu m$). The Hanle precession was observed in lateral spin
valves based on such materials and two parallel magnetic electrodes. We provide
theoretical estimations which show that the nonreciprocal effect in a
configuration with non-parallel magnetic electrodes is of the same order of
value as the effect that arise due to Hanle precession. This makes it possible
to observe the nonreciprocal electron transport as a manifestation of the
noncommutativity of spin-1/2 algebra for them in the proposed system. Such
property of noncoplanar magnetic system has a potential of application in a
noncoplanar type of spintronic devices.
