Deepinder Goyal’s Temple wearable uses optical sensing near the temple to track BrainFlow and a proprietary Entropy metric, but how scientifically validated are its ambitious health claims?
Deepinder Goyal’s Temple wearable is unlike conventional smartwatches and fitness trackers because it sits on the side of the head and is designed to monitor signals associated with cerebral blood flow. Its BrainFlow technology and proprietary Entropy metric have attracted attention across the technology and health-tech industries. However, while Temple has published promising validation results, medical experts say more independent research and clinical evidence are needed before its measurements can be treated as established medical indicators.
