Rock in Rio will have a 'belt' with 800 cameras and three drones

Rock in Rio will begin this Friday (4) with an extensive technological security and monitoring apparatus. The City's Operations and Resilience Center (COR-Rio) has set up a special operation for the festival.

The main measure is the creation of a "belt" composed of 800 security cameras. This video monitoring system will focus on the regions of Barra Olímpica, Curicica, Barra and Recreio, covering the entire area around the event.

In addition to the cameras, three drones will be used to monitor traffic and crowd flow around the festival. The technology aims to ensure greater control and security during the days of the event.

COR-Rio will be responsible for coordinating this entire integrated technological system during Rock in Rio.

Manufacturers warn: do not do this to the washing machine right after using it

Experts warn that leaving the washing machine door completely open after each use can paradoxically cause more problems than it solves. Although ventilation is necessary to prevent fungi and bacteria, the excess air and dust accumulated in an exposed drum over long periods can damage the hinges and sealing rubbers, leading to closure failures and small water leaks. The recommendation is to leave the door slightly ajar for about 30 minutes or until the interior is dry. Manufacturers such as Samsung and LG also suggest high-temperature maintenance washes, drum cleaning cycles, and regular cleaning of rubber seals to ensure hygiene and extend the appliance's lifespan.
