Objective Aiming at the problems of complex terrain adaptability and limited position of goods often faced by traditional robots in the field of automatic handling an autonomous handling robot adapted to diverse and complex terrain was proposed. Methods Firstly according to the characteristics of the lunar rover an omnidirectional mobile chassis and a five-degree-freedom handling platform were integrated to effectively improve the adaptability and cargo handling ability in variable terrains. Secondly the overall design of the handling platform was carried out including the design of the lifting structure the handling platform structure and the clamp design followed by handling experiments based on the working principle of the cargo handling structure. The control system employed a layered hardware architecture. The upper computer used the Robot Operating System ROS as the development framework combined with Simultaneous Localization and Mapping SLAM technology to optimize navigation and handling strategies. The lower computer allocated and executed tasks based on the instructions received from the upper computer through the serial port. The self-adjusting Monte Carlo navigation technology was used to design navigation algorithms determine key working parameters andthe efficiency and adaptability of the robot operation. Results Finally to ensure the robot?? s working performance and the accuracy of parameters simulation experiments were conducted using the Gazebo simulation program to predict the performance of the robot in real environments. The experiments verified the robot?? s efficient navigation ability in various environments. Conclusion The research results indicate that the robot has significant advantages in improving handling efficiency and reducing manual intervention providing important technical support for automatic handling systems. fully demonstrate
