Abstract:- When the value of gravity remains lower than the earth's own gravitational coefficient, the current suspension system fails to achieve the intended outcomes as the quantity and method of shock absorption changes. NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory collaborated on a suspension system dubbed the rocker-bogie Suspension System to counteract anti-gravity effects. It's essentially a suspension system for mechanical robotic vehicles used for space exploration. The rocker-bogie suspension based rovers have been successfully implemented for the Mars Pathfinder, Mars Research Rover (MER), and Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) missions carried out by the world's top space exploration organisations. Every space exploration firm engaged in the business of space research is presently favouring the suggested suspension mechanism. The goal of this study is to learn about the mechanical design and benefits of the Rocker-Bogie suspension system in order to see whether it can be used in traditional loading trucks to improve efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
