We show that non-Abelian gauge fields arise in a nongauged quantum system in the adiabatic approximation by working out a model of N-dimensional rotational symmetry. The induced gauge fields are symmetric under N-dimensional rotations accompanied by compensating gauge transformations of the group SO(N).
