Morphing and shape shifting technologies offer a wide range of applications in airplane design and are complicated to operate effectively with current existing methods. Variable camber wings is a innovative control surface technology designed as aero elastic wing shaping control device which minimizes drag throughout its flight envelope and increases performance in different flight conditions which leads to corresponding increase in airplane flight efficiency. In order to achieve these results one has to rely on different flight actuator configurations and techniques to achieve variable camber mechanism. Variable camber can be achieved span vice or chord wise on an aerofoil where a slight variation in thickness changes lift coefficient. Variable camber wing is a flexible structure that changes its shape profile at different aerodynamic load these types of wings are tested under different load conditions and Reynolds number in wind tunnel facility to have a detailed study on the performance. In this paper an attempt has been made to cover all the shape shifting and morphing wing technologies and compare the results and discuss the possibility of adaption of such technology in aerospace industry.
