Actually, Ryanair is surprisingly open to technological innovations as it dovetails perfectly with their ruthless driving down of costs. Examples include ~100% of bookings and check-ins done online (before other airlines woke up to this opportunity), use of mobile phones in-flight (Ryanair gets a massive cut) and the wingtips on the end on planes wings which help save fuel:

I'm not sure if they do it yet, buy I'm sure I read somewhere that there was talk of Ryanair introducing the scanning of barcodes on mobile phones screens. Of course, you can't take any gossip about Ryanair seriously - past examples include €10 transatlantic seats subsidized by €10,000 first class seats, charging for toilet access on-board, in-air blowjobs (yes, Michael O'Leary actually said that!), standing section instead of seats.....
