A multi-imager assembly including a plurality of imagers, a chassis, a drive assembly, and a controller. The plurality of imagers is operable to produce a composite image, with each of the plurality of imagers having optical zoom capability such that each of the plurality of imagers has a variable field of view. The chassis movably supports the plurality of imagers, and the drive assembly is operable to move the plurality of imagers while supported by the chassis. The controller is operable to coordinate movement of the plurality of imagers based at least in part upon the variable field of view of each of the plurality of imagers to produce the composite image.
