According to Japan’s "Yomiuri Shimbun" reported on October 9, in order to prevent terrorist incidents on the plane, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of Japan decided to conduct "human body scanning" on the international routes of Kansai Airport, Narita Airport and Haneda Airport starting from the 15th of this month. Test application of the instrument. This "body scanner" can see passengers' clothes through electric waves to prevent them from carrying dangerous goods.

It is reported that the application of the "human body scanner" as a trump card to deal with aircraft terrorist incidents is a measure taken by the Japanese government to prepare for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics. It changed the previous policy and comprehensively strengthened the security system and assumed the full cost for the airports managed by the Ministry of International Affairs.

According to reports, the human body scanner works by first letting people enter the instrument, and then the instrument emits a weak electric wave called a millimeter wave to the human body, and then the dangerous wave is detected by the reflected electric wave. With this body scanner, even those knives that cannot be detected by metal detectors and non-metallic products can be detected within a few seconds if they are hidden inside the clothes. The passenger only needs to stand at the entrance of the security check, and the human body image on the display will automatically display the inspection result.
