with those tools you are able to combine normal digital photos you made with your camera, mobile phone etc, ... to a big panoramic picture, as it is shown on the links below

MS Image Composite Editor

What is Image Composite Editor?
Microsoft Image Composite Editor is an advanced panoramic image stitcher. You shoot a set of overlapping photographs of a scene from a single location, and Image Composite Editor creates a high-resolution panorama incorporating all your images at full resolution. Then save your stitched panorama in a wide variety of formats, from common formats like JPEG and TIFF to multi-resolution tiled formats like HD View and Silverlight Deep Zoom.

hugin - Panorama photo stitcher

Goal: an easy to use cross-platform panoramic imaging toolchain based on Panorama Tools.
With hugin you can assemble a mosaic of photographs into a complete immersive panorama, stitch any series of overlapping pictures and much more.
hugin has now reached stable state: the software is recommended for general use.
A current pre-release version with all the new features can be downloaded for Windows and for OSX or built for Linux.
The outdated previous stable version is 0.7 beta 4, it can be downloaded for Linux, OS X and Windows, but it is no longer supported.

hugin has been localised with Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Russian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish and Ukranian translations.
