Abstract
An imaging device includes a housing, a carrier arranged within the housing, an optical assembly supported by the carrier within the housing, and a plurality of non-optical components arranged within the housing. The carrier includes one or more frame components that are configured to rotate relative to the housing about one or more axes of rotation. The optical assembly includes one or more lenses and an image sensor. The optical assembly is movable relative to the housing via the carrier about the one or more axes of rotation. At least one of the non-optical components is (1) operably coupled to the optical assembly and (2) not supported by the carrier.
