Abstract

Nowadays, digital photography is ubiquitous and indispensable tool used in various fields of knowledge. In addition to standard photography and more and more interesting kind of photos are used panoramic pictures. Completely new use of such images is to use them for panoramic visualization of the structure of materials - high resolution allows an insight into macro and microstructure of the material surface. The use of panoramic visualization of the surface of metallic materials for macroscopic and microscopic analysis of the structure of materials is a tool of immense possibilities that successfully is widely used in structural studies of materials in various fields of science. The article presents the disadvantages and advantages of the creation and use of panoramic images, acquiring images and demonstrates how the implementation of the panorama using Microsoft Image Composite Editor (ICE) on the example of the sample surface joints of metallic materials.
