There is no standard way to do it. AFAIK Panorama, Photoshere are proprietary features of Gallery3d (provided by Google) package com.google.android.gallery3d. It's depends on firmware of the device.

in manifest file

in your activity

 Intent res = new Intent();
 String mPackage = "com.google.android.gallery3d";
 String mClass = "com.google.android.apps.lightcycle.ProtectedPanoramaCaptureActivity";
res.setComponent(new ComponentName(mPackage,mClass));
startActivity(res);
