Large-scale panels, such as curtain walls and interior materials, are widely used as finishing materials for both the exterior and interior of buildings. With evolving construction trends and increasing structural demands, the size and weight of these panels continue to grow. However, assembly methods remain largely manual, relying on basic equipment such as winches or crane-like facilities.

This study is inspired by the manual glazing process. When handling a window with bare hands, it can be intuitively aligned and installed into a frame with ease. Similarly, if users could manipulate large panels intuitively, they could install them more efficiently even when the panels are lifted by a robotic system.

Based on this concept, the study introduces an Intuitive Manipulator Device (IMD) that can be attached to any position on a large panel while communicating with a slave robot holding the panel, allowing users to manipulate and position the material intuitively.
