Abstract

This form of panoramic presentation allows for a full 360° horizontal sweep. Vertical travel is limited and depends on the focal length of the lens used. Cylindrical panoramas can be photographed using special panoramic cameras. Alternatively, there is the option of taking a number of individual pictures that overlap each other by a certain percentage. This series of pictures is then stitched into a panoramic picture using special stitching software.
