Lenskart’s vision

Ajna lenses focus on various industries such as Education and defence. They want to inculcate VR/AR and XR Technologies to better defence forces.

Ajna Lens will help Lenskart by assisting them with artificial intelligence-powered extended reality (XR) technology, which helps them develop some of the most advanced wearable tech products. In return, they will get the design and engineering. 

According to industry estimates, the global smart glasses market is currently valued at over $6 billion and is expected to reach $15.08 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 10.3%. 

Bansal’s vision has always been of enabling technology into every sector possible, and this step enlarges what Lenskart has been wanting to do and is doing: Building technology in eyewear.
