A self-service terminal () can have:—a product-sensing device for sensing a property of a product;—a plurality of acoustic sensors (); and a control device, which is designed for: superposing a signal captured by means of the plurality of acoustic sensors (); determining a voice pattern on the basis of the result of the superposing; outputting information on the basis of the property and on the basis of the voice pattern; wherein the superposing and the position of the plurality of acoustic sensors () relative to each other are designed such that first components of the signal are attenuated relative to second components of the signal if an origin of the second components is located between the self-service terminal () and an origin of the first components.

Self-service terminal and method

A method for the computer-aided recognition of a transport container being empty can comprise: determining one or more than one segment of image data of the transport container using depth information assigned to the image data; assigning the image data to one from a plurality of classes, of which a first class represents the transport container being empty, and a second class represents the transport container being non-empty, wherein the one or more than one segment is not taken into account in the assigning; outputting a signal which represents the filtered image data being assigned to the second class.

According to various aspects, a self-service terminal () may include: a user interface () accessible to a user of the self-service terminal (); a sensing device () configured to sense information about the user; a control device () configured to: determine a physiological condition of the user based on the information; select an interface profile from a plurality of predefined (e.g., saved) interface profiles based on the physiological condition; instruct a reconfiguration of the user interface () based on the selected interface profile.

A self-service terminal and a method for providing security at a self-service terminal are disclosed, wherein the self-service terminal comprises: an imaging device, configured for providing at least one digital image; at least one processor, configured for applying a facial recognition method to the at least one digital image; and for controlling the self-service terminal using a facial recognition criterion depending on the result of the facial recognition method.
