That design is money - Designing ATM interface (physicalinterface.com)

The revised visual design is wonderful and clear (the check scanning process screen especially) and I'm sure the touchscreens will be a lot more pleasant to use.

However, I don't understand why they force the user to distinguish between depositing checks and cash. The scanner can tell the difference just fine I'm sure.

Actually, it'd be cool to not have to push a deposit button at all – just start sliding checks in and it'd know I was depositing and switch to that mode.


I think there is one thing still missing. Most people go to ATM to get cash. After entering my PIN, I don't want to press OK and see another menu to withdraw money. I want "Get $20" button right next to "OK" button for an option to withdraw money even quicker right after I entered my PIN.
