ATM is Equipped with Touch Screen MonitorOf course the first time we use an ATM (automated teller machine) have been frustrated we have learned to draw money, but how many dare to do some more complex as the cost of the phone, buying tickets or paying bills?. Surely the user experience is not a best retouching and much needed enough.

For example: Why should always remove the same amount of money from the account, do not see this option as one that can be done with 1 click? So difficult is to schedule the surgery is often at the ATM?

Precisely this problem and many more that we are holy Stropped detailed in his article “design that is money a better experience at Wells Fargo ATM!” (Design that is money ATM A better experience at Wells Fargo!) And we see below:

Wells Fargo contract Pentagram in the fall of 2005 to work on a new UI (user interface) for its ATMs, Wells Fargo is in the process of replacing ATM with new models equipped with touch screen monitors. This is a relatively slow process because the park was 7000 and the replacement of expensive ATM. Design efforts that aim to improve the user experience and satisfaction. Wells Fargo to think more in the flow of a more elegant presentation than a tedious display screen, along with a more stylish look to the UI (user interface). Here we see the welcome screen and collect the PIN (personal key) with a simple screen with big buttons and wide indicators (such as items to display how many digits are entered.)

UI previously had to run both at the ATM with a touch screen as a button. This means that the keys should always be located on the side of the screen, in line with the buttons on the machine. The decision to separate the new layout of the house based on “button next to” is the most important decision in terms of product design. In the picture below we can see the difference between the old design and new design:

With the new UI is possible to use the full screen to input the customer. This is highly useful features such as storage of checks, with a lower processing costs and the ability to print receipts with check image.

First ATM Machines

First ATM MachinesFour decades after the first ATM is estimated that worldwide there are more than 1.6 million devices.

Accessing your money 24 hours a day and from anywhere in the world is a very common conveniences we now enjoy from an ATM or ATM. Four decades ago, however, the possibilities are not in the financial world and are present only in the mind of an inventor and a young English-man.

“I remember in 1965, I used to withdraw money from my bank account on Saturday morning … But one minute I arrived late Saturday to the bank and the branch is closed,” he said to John Shepherd-Barron, who is credited Briton found the first ATM.

His dilemma, unable to access funds from your account because the banks closed, starts thinking. That night, sitting in the tub, light bulbs …

“I think there must be a way to access my money when I want it,” said Shepherd-Barron’s Sky News in London. “Then I started to think and remember selling candy and chocolate machine at the train station.”

“I wondered; why not replace chocolate for cash?” He said.

He immediately began working on your project and two years later, on June 27, 1967, opened the first cash machine outside a branch of Barclays Bank in the town of Enfield, North London.

British comedian Rag Varney was hired by the bank to launch a new discovery and during the ceremony, attended by a small group of people, attracted record 10 pounds, Shepherd-Barron told the BBC.

“That amount of money enough to enjoy the incredible weekend,” he added.

First ATM installed at a branch of Barclays does not use plastic cards we currently use to manage our accounts. Instead of working with checks stamped with a small amount of radioactive carbon 14.

Shepherd-Barron said that although he “checks radioactive, the amount of radioactive material in it was minimal that it is some damage to the carrier, it will eat about 136 thousand, is calculated.
