In a significant step for India’s deep-tech ecosystem, Sarvam AI has launched Kaze, an AI smart-glasses platform built entirely in India. Demonstrated at the India AI Impact Summit and worn by Narendra Modi during the event, the device highlights the country’s ambition to move beyond AI software into tightly integrated hardware-AI experiences.
Kaze acts as an always-available AI assistant, combining computer vision, speech recognition and real-time language models in a wearable form factor. Users can issue natural voice commands, receive contextual responses, capture visual information and access workflow support without touching a screen.
A key differentiator is its native support for multiple Indian languages, enabling real-time translation, guided assistance and voice interaction for non-English users. an area where global devices such as the Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses currently have limited localisation.
The glasses are being positioned for high-impact sectors including healthcare support, field inspections, education, logistics and accessibility for visually or physically challenged users. The architecture is also aligned with edge AI deployment, which can improve responsiveness while minimising cloud dependency.
While full specifications and pricing remain undisclosed, the commercial rollout is expected in the coming months. Kaze represents a strategic shift for India’s AI stack—from building models to embedding intelligence into everyday devices—signalling the emergence of a domestic contender in the global wearable computing market.
