Check out Microsoft Photosynth

http://labs.live.com/photosynth/video.html

This technology looks really cool. It's like creating a panoramic picture, but on steroids that are on steroids. It's way awesome.

From the site:

"Our software takes a large collection of photos of a place or an object, analyzes them for similarities, and displays them in a reconstructed three-dimensional space.

With Photosynth you can:

Walk or fly through a scene to see photos from any angle.
Seamlessly zoom in or out of a photo whether it's megapixels or gigapixels in size.
See where pictures were taken in relation to one another.
Find similar photos to the one you're currently viewing.
Send a collection - or a particular view of one - to a friend. "
