Assistive technology plays a critical role in enabling independence, safety, and confidence for people with visual impairments.
Smart Vision Glasses Ultra (SVG Ultra) is a Made-in-India, AI-powered assistive smart glasses solution developed by SHG Technologies, in collaboration with Vision Aid, to support people with visual impairments in their everyday lives. Designed to work reliably in real-world conditions, SVG Ultra focuses on accessibility, independence, and dignity.
For people with visual impairments, daily tasks such as reading printed text, navigating unfamiliar spaces, identifying currency, or recognising familiar faces can present ongoing challenges.
While assistive technology has evolved over the years, many solutions remain bulky, complex, or unsuitable for everyday use. Others require constant connectivity or draw unwanted attention to the user.
SVG Ultra was developed to bridge this gap, offering assistive smart glasses that are practical, wearable, and designed for real life.
The development of Smart Vision Glasses Ultra is the result of more than eight years of research, testing, and collaboration.
SHG Technologies has worked closely with:
From early wired prototypes to wireless solutions and fully integrated eyewear, each generation helped refine usability, comfort, balance, and interaction shaping SVG Ultra into a mature assistive technology solution.
Smart Vision Glasses Ultra integrates advanced hardware components into a compact, eyewear-style form factor, ensuring both performance and comfort for daily use.
One of the key differentiators of SVG Ultra is its sleek, eyewear-style design.
Unlike traditional assistive devices that rely on external modules or visible attachments, SVG Ultra integrates all its components within a balanced frame. This allows users to wear the device comfortably throughout the day without feeling self-conscious
Smart Vision Glasses Ultra combines artificial intelligence with advanced sensors to deliver real-time audio assistance. Its features include:
SVG Ultra helps users read printed and digital text clearly, even without internet access. The device guides page alignment and converts text into clear audio output.
With a built-in multi-zone LiDAR sensor, SVG Ultra detects obstacles and changes in the path ahead, supporting safer movement in indoor and outdoor environments.
Using a camera and AI processing, SVG Ultra can describe nearby objects and environments, helping users stay aware of their surroundings.
SVG Ultra accurately identifies Indian currency notes, enabling independent financial transactions.
Users can recognise familiar faces while maintaining privacy. Images are not stored permanently, and personal data protection remains a core design principle.
With this feature, the users can store the pages of the books or novels that they have read and can listen to them again whenever they want.
With open-ear Bluetooth speakers, noise-cancellation microphones, and voice activation, users can interact with the device hands-free. The built-in assistant allows users to switch modes, ask questions, and access information naturally.
Designed for India's diverse population, SVG Ultra supports: Multiple Indian languages and accents. Text translation into the user's preferred language.
SVG Ultra includes an emergency mode that allows users to quickly contact trusted people with location support. This feature provides added reassurance for both users and caregivers.
Smart Vision Glasses Ultra is not designed to be a general-purpose smart device. It is a purpose-built assistive solution, shaped by years of research, real-world testing, and close collaboration with the visually impaired community.
By combining AI-powered assistance, thoughtfully integrated hardware, and an eyewear-style design, SVG Ultra supports independence while respecting the dignity and privacy of its users. From reading and navigation to communication and safety, the device is built to function reliably in everyday life, not just controlled environments.
