Unloading pallets from a trailer using an autonomous mobile robot. The robot determines a pose of the trailer and a pose of each observable pallet inside. The robot identifies a target pallet for retrieval based on the observed poses and determines a front plane for the pallets in the same row as the target pallet. The robot navigates to a first goal position, side-shifts its fork to align the fork with the target pallet's pockets, inserts the fork, and lifts the pallet. The robot then navigates in reverse to a second goal position, determined based on the front plane and trailer pose. From the second position, the robot proceeds to a drop-off point in a staging area, side-shifting the fork towards the center during transit.
