Digital photography of the late twentieth century greatly simplified this assembly process, which is now known as ''image stitching''. Such stitched images may even be fashioned into forms of [[virtual reality]] movies, using technologies such as [[QuickTime VR]], [[Adobe Flash|Flash]], [[Java 3D|Java]], or even [[JavaScript]]. A [[rotating line camera]] such as the [[Panoscan]] allows the capture of high resolution panoramic images and eliminates the need for [[image stitching]], but immersive "spherical" panorama movies (that incorporate a full 180° vertical viewing angle as well as 360° around) must be made by stitching multiple images. Stitching images together can be used to create extremely high resolution [[gigapixel]] panoramic images.
