Apple may have popularized stitching a video to make a panorama, but they weren't the first to do so.
i'm not sure that's what Apple does; iOS seems to merely do a typical live view while you pan, but then also auto-detects, captures and stitches appropriate frames; i doubt it is capturing a full res image for every "frame" of the live view — that would be quite a lot of processing throughput, especially to analyze it for panorama seams! i think it is probably detecting seams based on the down-rezed image used for the live view display
Is there any software to take full resolution video from a DSLR and stitch it together into a panorama? I guess you'd need a DSLR that would do full resolution video first.
instead of full-res video i think an approach like Apple's would be possible with a smart enough camera; such cameras are starting to emerge, but most DSLRs are still relatively inflexible computing platforms
