it's just a very huge panorama.. what they usually do is get 1 or 2 fisheyes, and take photos from a tripod that rotates around the nodal point of the lens (u need special panning equipment for this, and it's not cheap)... then use some specialised software to stitch those photos together for use in certain viewers.. quite expensive though...

this is one of the more popular systems that companies use.. but there are lots more around...

My canon camera comes with the software to stitch. Now I just need a special ballhead to do a 360degrees vertical.
