Medical displaceable contouring mechanism

An apparatus, comprising:

• one or more independently displaceable contouring units pivotably coupled to a conformable portion, the one or more displaceable contouring units being independently displaceable along a longitudinal axis, the conformable portion configured to receive an applied force and configured to freely pivot about multiple axes relative to the longitudinal axis in response to the applied force.

A system, comprising:

• contour detector means for determining a contour of at least a portion of an individual;
• and
• multiple displaceable contouring units, each of the multiple displaceable contouring units configured to receive an applied force and each of the multiple displaceable contouring units pivotably coupled to a respective conformable portion configured to pivot about a first axis substantially along a longitudinal axis of the displaceable contouring unit, and configured to pivot at least about a second axis at an angle to the longitudinal axis in response to an applied force, the multiple displaceable contouring units configured to relatively displace to conform to the contour of the portion of the individual.

An apparatus, comprising:

• a control system configured to electromechanically control a longitudinal displacement of at least one displaceable contouring unit and an angular displacement of at least one conformable portion pivotably coupled via a joint member to the at least one displaceable contouring unit relative to an individual to conform the contour of the at least one displaceable contouring unit with respect to at least one portion of the individual.
