Abstract
Systems and methods according to the present invention provide a more secure Automated Teller Machine (ATM) transaction by preventing observation of banking customers' Personal Identification Number (PIN). Such systems and methods make it difficult to obtain a customer's PIN by tracking the hand movement of a customer using an ATM. Inputs presented for a customer selection are preferably dynamically displayed in different locations preferably each time the customer is asked to enter a PIN. Dynamically changing the sequence of the display and/or location of the presented inputs reduces the possibility of mapping the hand movement of the customer to the positions of the inputs displayed for a customer selection. Inputs may also be presented at a very narrow viewing angle, thereby making observation of a PIN difficult. Hence, banking customers are preferably provided with a more robust and secured ATM transaction system.
