A sensor system includes a sensor payload ( 20 ) capable of generating image signals, an electronic control unit (ECU) ( 40 ) for controlling the sensor payload and a hand held control unit ( 80 ) in communication with the ECU for use by an operator to input control commands to the ECU. The hand held control unit ( 80 ) includes a front facing control panel surface ( 84 ) having control elements distributed thereon and an orthogonally disposed bottom surface ( 94 ). A handle ( 96 ) extends from the enclosure bottom surface ( 94 ) with the handle longitudinal axis disposed at an angle (A) of between 175 and 135 degrees with respect to the control panel surface ( 84 ). In a second embodiment, the senor system includes a lap top control unit (LCU) ( 300 ) reconfigurable by an operator to swap movable control module ( 312, 306 ) from a base unit left side receiving port ( 320 ) to a base unit right side receiving port ( 318 ) to accommodate both left and right-handed users.
