It can create panoramic mosaics as well.

The library can do automatic stitching in a simple command or or perform one of the specific tasks (feature detection, feature matching, bundle adjustment / optimization, blending and rendering)

We as authors are open to add new features and improvements upon user's request. We are also developing GUI tools such as panorama viewer (using WPF).

Answer 3

This is used by GIMP as well http://stitchpanorama.sourceforge.net/

Answer 4

I was looking for the same thing and I've found this.
It is a .net framework that can manipulate images. It can stitch together 2 images using 4 steps :

1. Interest point detection
2. Correlation matching
3. Robust homography estimation
4. Gradient blending

The demo covers only the stitching of 2 pictures at a time, but the code can be modified to stitch more pictures into one.
It is easy to use and it is open source.
