There were using this system when I boarded my flight from LAX to EZE. Passengers were instructed to have their passports visible and boarding passes handy just in case. I approached the camera and almost immediately my seat number popped up on the screen; it was quicker than it takes for the scanner to read the bar code on a boarding pass.
