Abstract
An expansion module includes an expansion accessory and expansion fastening structures that removably couple the expansion module to retention features of a housing of an image capture device when an access door of the image capture device is in a removed position. The expansion module also includes an expansion communication interface that couples an imaging communication interface of the image capture device when the access door of the image capture device is in the removed position. The retention features include hinge structures and cavities defined in the housing of the image capture device. The expansion fastening structures comprise hinge structures and latch structures that engage the retention features of the housing of the image capture device.
