a plurality of springs, each spring of the plurality of springs disposed between and connecting adjacent struts of the plurality of struts;

a wire routed around the plurality of struts; and
a controller electrically connected to the wire, the controller configured to:
apply a current to the wire and, in response, the wire transitions from a first length to a second length shorter than the first length, causing the plurality of springs to contract to decrease an overall longitudinal length of the flex frame; and
