Badminton star PV Sindhu was seen wearing a small forehead device called Temple during the BWF World Championships 2026 in New Delhi, sparking curiosity. The wearable, developed by Zomato co-founder Deepinder Goyal's team, monitors cerebral blood flow and brain-related signals, unlike standard fitness trackers that measure heart rate or movement.

According to Times Now, Temple tracks parameters such as cerebral blood flow, brain oxygenation, and a proprietary metric called Entropy, offering real-time data on cognitive workload and fatigue. Athletes may use this to understand training load, recovery, and concentration, though the technology remains experimental and not intended for medical diagnosis.
Temple is not yet available for general purchase. The company is offering early access, with a wider launch expected in the coming months.
Both Times Now articles present a neutral-report stance, focusing on explaining the technology rather than taking sides. One piece emphasises the device's features and Goyal's role, while the other stresses medical caution and the limits of brain wearables. The coverage is uniform straight reporting. A careful reader should note that the technology is still emerging, and its value depends on scientific validation, not hype. Watch for the wider launch timeline in the coming months.
