The Problem

Excessive wait times along with poor management at Indian temples result in significant physical and mental discomfort for devotees, hindering their spiritual experience.
Fragmented nature of the Domain and significant information and knowledge gap which in turn makes the perceived time longer.

Process

Concept

Role of Storytelling: Using interactive storytelling related to deity and temple during the queue can reduce their perceived wait time & negative emotions by significant amount. Leveraging the emerging animation and gaming industry in India and integrating it can make it an unforgetable experience🔗. By weaving storytelling into the AR experience, we can tap into the emotional and psychological impact of narrative, fostering a deeper connection with the spiritual significance of the temple.

Aggregated Model: An aggregated model for a temple app aims to provide a seamless and comprehensive experience for users by integrating various services and information into a single platform.
