Image Composite Editor (ICE) is an advanced panoramic image stitcher created by the Microsoft Research Computational Photography Group.

Given a set of overlapping photographs of a scene shot from a single camera location, the app creates a high-resolution panorama that seamlessly combines the original images.

ICE can also create a panorama from a panning video, including stop-motion action overlaid on the background.

Finished panoramas can be shared with friends and viewed in 3D by uploading them to the Photosynth web site. P

anoramas can also be saved in a wide variety of image formats, including JPEG, TIFF, and Photoshop’s PSD/PSB format, as well as the multiresolution tiled format used by HD View and Deep Zoom.
