Panoramic vistas were once only available with the right equipment... special lenses, trick cameras, extensive darkroom work. Now that whole process has become much more convenient and accessible through software developed by the University of British Columbia.
Autostitch is the world's first fully automatic 2D image
stitcher. Capable of stitching full view panoramas without any user input whatsoever, Autostitch is a breakthrough technology for panoramic photography. For more information (and some cool views too) visit their website. While you're there, you can also download a trial version of the software:
