Abstract
An x-ray head support boom has a number of tube segments coupled together in series. Each segment may be formed from a flexible membrane and encloses a jammable medium that transitions between a fluidic state and a rigid state in response to an applied force. Each segment is coupled to an actuator for application of the force. At least one cable is coupled to one or more tube segments to apply a tensile force to bend the series of tube segments.
