An assembly for an aircraft propulsion system includes a propulsor section and an imaging device. The propulsor section includes a propulsor and a structural body. The propulsor includes a plurality of propulsor blades. The structural body forms an outer air flow surface forming a portion of an air flow path through the propulsor section. The imaging device includes a housing and a camera. The housing includes a housing body and a cover. The housing body is mounted in the structural body. The housing body forms a cavity and an opening of the cavity. The cover is pivotable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The camera is disposed in the cavity with the cover positioned in the stowed position. The camera is configured to capture image data of each propulsor blade of the plurality of propulsor blades with the cover positioned in the deployed position.
