Note

License and capability clarification (2026-07-14): FunASR is a toolkit, not a single checkpoint. The FunASR and SenseVoice repository source code is MIT; model weights follow each model card. SenseVoiceSmall supports Chinese, Cantonese, English, Japanese, and Korean, and its weights use the linked FunASR Model Open Source License Agreement. Fun-ASR-Nano-2512 is Apache-2.0. Language coverage, punctuation, and performance depend on the selected model and runtime configuration.

Hi! Great project turning glasses into AI-powered devices!

Would you consider FunASR or SenseVoice for the speech recognition component?

Why for smart glasses?

• Ultra-fast — SenseVoice-Small: ~70ms for 10s audio, critical for wearable UX
• Small model — ~400MB, feasible for edge processing
• Built-in punctuation — Clean text output
• Emotion detection — SenseVoice detects speaker emotions
• Fully offline — No cloud dependency for glasses
• ONNX available — Optimized for mobile/edge inference
• 50+ languages, Apache 2.0
