Last year, Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal officially teased the launch of a new wearable device called Temple. And a few months back, the first 100 Temple devices were shipped to get critical feedback on the device.
The pre-orders for Temple have now officially started in the Indian market.

What is Temple?
Temple is a small golden device that is worn on the temple, where thin tissue, highly vascularized fascia, the superficial temporal artery, and dense autonomic regulation of skin blood flow create a cleaner, richer signal and a deeper window into human physiology.
Its main technology is called BrainFlow. Using optical sensors, the device tracks changes in cerebral blood flow, or the movement of blood through the brain. It also monitors signals associated with brain oxygenation and cognitive load. The idea is to help users understand how their bodies respond to stress, exercise and recovery.
Temple offers an Entropy score ranging from 1 to 250. This score is designed to indicate physiological strain. Do note that the device is designed for wellness and research purposes and cannot be a replacement for medical tests.
