A mechanism for moving a sensor within a volume constrained sensor compartment, which includes a cam path defined within the compartment, a cam follower mounted for movement throughout the cam path, a support assembly connected to the cam follower for carrying the sensor within the compartment as the cam follower moves throughout the cam path, and a flipper cam mounted for movement relative to the cam path between a first position permitting the cam follower to move within a left side portion of the cam path so as to translate and rotate the sensor within a left side of the compartment and a second position permitting the cam follower to move within a right side portion of the cam path so as to translate and rotate the sensor within a right side of the compartment.

An image gathering system includes an intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) device, an isolation system with a damper, and a controller operatively associated with the damper. The damper has a vehicle coupling and a payload coupling, and the payload coupling is connected to the ISR system. The controller is operatively associated with the damper to change the damping coefficient of the damper based on an expected vibration signature of a vehicle coupled to the isolation system through the vehicle coupling of the damper.
