The idea is that next to the usual queues for passport control, there's a third queue for iris-coded passengers. Those passengers simply walk up to the gate, show their eye to the camera, and the gate opens for them. This would be much faster than the usual passport control, but obviously substituting barcodes would make impersonation much easier.
They may never make iris coding compulsory for flight, but if they can promise much greater convenience in return then it may only be a few "goats" and protesters who have to do things the slow way.
