The guy saw us walking from the machine, he was a few feet away.
I have never seen e-gates that use fingerprints - all of the ones I have seen use facial recognition.

You scan passport and fingerprint/biometric, the gate opens, you step forward, the gate closes behind you, a camera verifies your photo and the final gate/door opens allowing you past. Ensure that the person who has processed the passport is the same one actually going through.
