EchoLens is an AI powered immersive memory experience generator that transforms ordinary digital messages into interactive, shareable moments. Instead of sending a plain text message, static photo or generic greeting card, users can upload a photo, write a short message or provide a voice note. EchoLens then uses an agentic AI workflow to understand the user’s intent, emotional tone and context before generating a polished message, visual direction, scene concept and interactive web-based memory card. The project is designed around a simple idea: digital communication should feel more human. EchoLens allows users to create small immersive experiences for birthdays, appreciation notes, travel memories, event invitations, personal milestones or long distance messages. The final output can be explored as a lightweight 3D scene or animated digital card and shared through a link or QR code. For the AMD Developer Hackathon, EchoLens demonstrates how AMD Developer Cloud and ROCm can support practical AI inference for creative, multimodal and agentic applications. The system combines AI agents, multimodal input and immersive web technology to create a complete end-to-end experience from raw user input to a finished interactive memory.
