Deepinder Goyal stated that Temple's longer-term roadmap includes a research team working on a thoughts-to-text feature, which could potentially arrive by the third or fourth version of the device.
In its second validation study involving 60 participants, Temple's BrainFlow feature showed strong correlations of 0.84 to 0.91 with brain blood-volume changes measured using time-domain NIRS, achieving its highest correlation of 0.91 during a head-down tilt test.
Temple's India pre-orders are expected to open soon, with priority given to early-access waitlist members, and the launch edition will be available in six colors.
