TSA and Clear have introduced automated e-gates with facial recognition for identity verification at certain airports, aiming to speed up security lines; the pilot is available to Clear+ members and is supervised by TSA.

The world's busiest airport in Atlanta is the first in the country to test a new biometric eGate that would have travelers skipping the normal TSA podiums.

The partnership will help prepare the U.S. for the massive influx of soccer fans traveling to the U.S next year.
