The COOLPIX AW110 has both an Easy Panorama Mode and a Panorama Assist Mode. The Easy Panorama Mode allows you to take horizontal or vertical panoramic images that have a range of either 180º or 360º. The Panorama Assist Mode guides you in taking a series of individual images that you can stitch together into a single panoramic image using the Panorama Maker software that is included on the View NX2 CD that comes with the camera.
The Nikon1 J2, which you have also linked to this question, has an Easy Panorama Creative Mode.
For more information on the Easy Panorama Scene Mode see this article on NikonUSA.com:

Does the wi-fi feature only work with smart phones or can I transfer the photos wirelessly to my laptop through my home network? Thanks!
I am looking for a GPS rugged camera with wi-fi capability, however I do not have a cell phone or a tablet. I do have a laptop with Windows 7. Can I use the wi-fi functionality with that set-up? I live in a very remote location without cell / 3G,LTE service, but we do have internet access.

When the Wifi feature is activated on the AW110, the camera creates it own wifi hot spot which you must connect to using an Iphone, Ipad, Adroid smart phone, or android tablet, and you need to have the 'WMAU' (Wireless mobile Adapter Utility) already installed on your smart device before trying to connect. The app can be downloaded from the google play store and Apple app store using your smart device.The AW110 cannot connect to your broadband router or anything else.
After turning on the AW100 Wifi, You should see an SSID displayed, and colurful square boxes moving around on your AW110 screen. At this point, you must go to the settings on your Iphone, Ipad, Adroid smart phone, or android tablet, and activate the Wifi, and you will see the SSID on the camera screen displayed as one of the available networks on your Smart device. Tap the network to connect. After connecting to the network, Open the WMAU app and enjoy remote shooting with the AW110 using Your smart device.

The Negotiation screen is an indication that you are fully connected and you should open up the WMU application on your iPad. If you do not have the wireless mobile utility app installed on your iPad, you can search and download it from Apple app store using your iPad. The app will only show up as a iphone app, so you will need to change the settings when you are in the store so that the ipad shows iPhone apps.
see page 91-93 in your manual, or contact technical support for a walk through setup if you are still having issues.

Nikon does not manufacture a solar battery charger. There may be a third party manufacturer of a product of this kind but Nikon cannot offer advice or support for third party products. Additionally, the use of non-Nikon electronic accessories could damage the camera and may void your Nikon warranty.

Question
Water enter the body of the camera?
Hi, I just bought a new Nikon AW110. And tried to sink it in a basin (about 1m depth) for about 10 minutes.
And when I took it up, clean and brush all of the body. I open the battery seal and I see some water drop around the battery place, but it's not enter the battery and the port area (just in the edges)
Also, when I tried to shake my camera. There are some water splashing from the body, seems like it's enter the front body. Is it normal?
But after that, it's still working normal. I'm just worry that I can't use it in the sea or in a deep pool.
Thank you.

As long as it is working normally, I think you should be fine. Just don't open the battery compartment until the camera is fully dry and stop shaking the camera unnecessarily.
