Hawaii National Guardsmen who have been screening passengers at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport have received a technological upgrade thanks to the new thermal imaging cameras installed by the Hawaii State Department of Transportation.
The Hawaii Guardsmen who were activated in March to support the statesʻ response to the COVID-19 pandemic have been augmenting the Airport Fire Department.

Until recently the screening was accomplished by a team of four to six Solders and / or Airmen wielding manual thermometers. Passengerʻs temperatures are now monitored by the Hawaii National Guard Soldiers and Airmen via thermal imaging as the travelers and crew exit the jetway. This process cuts the footprint of the Guardsmen down to two per flight and makes the process more efficient, all the while keeping every one socially-distanced. The passengers images are not saved to any system and the image cache is automatically dumped after fifteen to thirty minutes. (U.S. Air National Guard Video by Tech. Sgt. Andrew Jackson)
