What is Sarvam Kaze?
Sarvam Kaze is an AI-powered wearable built in the form of lightweight glasses that can listen, interpret voice commands, respond in real time and visually capture what the user sees. Unlike conventional AI tools that function through phones or laptops, the device aims to blend intelligence with everyday movement through voice and visual interaction.
According to reports, the company is also preparing to introduce a chat feature, expanding the device's communication capabilities. Developers are expected to be able to build customised applications on the Sarvam platform, enabling use-case-specific experiences across industries. The company describes the product as fully designed and engineered in India, highlighting its homegrown credentials.
