In view of the detection requirement in dim and low gravity environments of the south pole of the Moon and the canyons of Mars, it is urgent to explore intelligent and efficient robot control and management methods so that robots can reliably complete complex tasks of planetary exploration, support the construction of lunar and Mars bases, and ensure long-term development. On the basis of elaborating the definition of dim and low gravity environments and analyzing the latest progress of robots, the challenges brought by dim and low gravity environments to planetary exploration robots are discussed, and the development trend of intelligent robot operation in dim and low gravity environments is summarized. Some suggestions on the development of intelligent robot technology are put forward from the perspective of intelligent robot behavior control and intelligent operation management.
