Description

Hawaii's major airports have a form of facial recognition from NEC.

HDOT partnered with a team led by NEC Corporation in July 2020 on the project. The thermal screening equipment has been operational since August 2020. The combined thermal screening and facial imaging equipment began operations at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL), Kahului Airport (OGG), Lihue Airport (LIH), Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport at Keahole (KOA) and Hilo International Airport (ITO) in early 2021, after personnel were trained in operating the system 1

Phase 1 and Phase 2, completed in 2020, installed thermal screening cameras at all arrival gates to screen passengers as they deplane the aircraft. Those detected with a temperature of 100.4 degrees and higher will have their image taken. The image will be available for airport representatives to identify and pull the person aside as they approach the nearest monitoring control room located in the airport terminal. If a manual temperature check confirms the initial temperature reading, the passenger will have an additional medical screening which includes the option to have a COVID-19 sample taken 1

According to state officials and NEC Corporation, the state’s vendor for the airport health surveillance, anyone whose body temperature measures at least 100.4 degrees on the thermal cameras will have their facial image taken. The facial recognition cameras join the thermal scanners installed at Hawaii’s major airports in Honolulu, Kahului, Lihue, Keahole and Hilo, all of which serve trans-Pacific flights to the U.S. mainland and international destinations 2

Privacy rights activists raised concerns about the airport screenings last year as Hawaii started installing the thermal cameras and began testing facial recognition tools. In a letter to Ige and other officials last June, the American Civil Liberties Union of Hawaii said that the installation of facial recognition technology in response to COVID-19 was “ineffective, unnecessary, rife for abuse, expensive, potentially unconstitutional and ‘terrifying.'” Hawaii officials said in their Monday announcement that images captured by the new airport cameras would be “deleted within 30 minutes and will not be shared with any outside agencies.” 2
