1. An imaging device mounting assembly for mounting an imaging device, the assembly comprising:
- an imaging device mounting board adapted to secure the imaging device thereto;
a first resilient member adapted to be interfaced between the imaging device and the imaging device mounting board;
an outer housing enclosing the imaging device mounting board, wherein the imaging device mounting board is secured to the outer housing; and
a second resilient member interfaced between the outer housing and at least one of the imaging device and the mounting board;
wherein the first and second resilient members are arranged with respect to the outer housing and the imaging device mounting board in a manner that is adapted to at least partially dampen movement of the imaging device to minimize damage to the imaging device that would otherwise render the imaging device inoperable for its intended function upon impact from an external shock load.

Abstract
An assembly for mounting an imaging device, such as a camera, is provided. The assembly may include a housing and an imaging device mounted to the housing. The housing is constructed and arranged in a manner that absorbs and/or dampens a shock and/or vibration to minimize any resulting damage to the imaging device. The assembly may be constructed and arranged to meet MIL-S-901D (NAVY). In one embodiment, resilient and/or robust materials are incorporated into the mounting assembly.
