Deepinder Goyal calls himself delusional for building Temple wearable, to develop 20 generations

Zomato founder Deepinder Goyal is making headlines again — this time not for food delivery, but for a wearable device called Temple. According to reports, Goyal has described himself as "delusional" for taking on the project, and says the plan is to develop the wearable across 20 generations of iteration. Details on exactly what Temple does are still emerging, but the ambition alone has caught the attention of the wellness and tech world.

For health-conscious parents, any new wearable raises a familiar question: what does this mean for the amount of radiofrequency (RF) radiation we're carrying on our bodies, day in and day out? Wearables, like smartphones, typically communicate wirelessly — via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cellular connections — which means they emit low levels of EMF. The closer a device sits to the body, and the longer it's worn, the more relevant exposure duration becomes, even though individual wearables generally emit far less than a cell phone mid-call.

Why This Matters for Families

We don't yet know the technical specs of Temple, and it's too early to make claims about its emissions. But the broader trend is clear: more wearables, more connected devices, more ambient wireless signals in daily life. For parents already mindful of EMF in the home, this is a good moment to think holistically about total exposure — not just from a single gadget, but from the cumulative wireless footprint of a household.

The good news is that basic physics still applies: EMF intensity drops off quickly with distance, so simple habits (not sleeping next to a phone, keeping wearables off overnight, using wired options when possible) can meaningfully reduce exposure without requiring any special equipment.

What You Can Actually Control at Home

While you can't control what's inside the next big wearable, you do have influence over the EMF sources already in your house. Many families start by auditing the big, always-on contributors: routers, baby monitors, and small appliances that sit close to where people sleep or work. If you're also trying to improve indoor air quality, it's worth knowing that not all air purifiers are created equal on the EMF front — this guide to low-EMF air purifiers breaks down which models keep emissions low while still cleaning the air effectively.

Daily grooming routines matter too. If you're curious whether your morning routine is adding to your EMF load, this breakdown of low-EMF hair dryers explains what to look for. And for parents renovating or building a home with EMF reduction in mind, it's worth understanding how far shielding products can actually go — this guide to EMF shielding paint covers what the science does and doesn't support.

As Temple and other next-generation wearables roll out, expect more conversation about wireless exposure — and more reason for families to stay informed rather than alarmed.
