If you make sure you have a fair amount of overlap you should be able
to work around problems of people moving about, but make sure you're
fairly quick all the same.
If you can work out the total angle of view I *think* you can set
that up in VRWorx and stitch your semi-circular panorama.
Alternatively, I think PTGui or RealViz Stitcher (but possibly not
Stitcher Express) can stitch arbitrary sets of images and render
composite results.
