Automated financial transaction apparatus with interface that adjusts to the user

An apparatus comprising:

• at least one data store,
• wherein the at least one data has stored therein, data corresponding to a plurality of users, wherein the data associates each respective one of the plurality of users with at least one characteristic feature and at least one interface parameter,
• a reading device in operative connection with an automated financial transaction apparatus including a display screen,
• wherein the reading device is operative to sense at least one characteristic feature of a user adjacent to the automated financial transaction apparatus,
• at least one computer,
• wherein the at least one computer is in operative connection with the at least one data store,
• wherein the at least one computer, responsive to the at least one characteristic feature of a user sensed by the reading device, is operative to determine from the at least one data store, the at least one interface parameter associated with the user in the at least one data store, and
• wherein the at least one computer is operative to cause the display screen to be moved with a moving device responsive to the at least one interface parameter determined from the at least one data store.

An automated financial transaction apparatus comprising:

• a reading device operative to sense at least one characteristic feature associated with each of a plurality of users;
• a movably mounted display screen;
• a movement mechanism in operative connection with the display screen;
• a computer in operative connection with a data store, the computer also in operative connection with the reading device and the movement mechanism, wherein the data store includes data corresponding to a plurality of characteristic features, wherein at least one of the characteristic features corresponds to at least one of the plurality of users, and for each one of the characteristic features at least one associated interface parameter, wherein the interface parameter corresponds to a position of the display screen;
• wherein the computer is operative responsive to the reading device sensing a first characteristic feature corresponding to one of the plurality of users, to cause the movement mechanism to move the display screen to a position corresponding to an interface parameter associated in the data store with the first characteristic feature.

An automated financial transaction apparatus comprising:

• a data receiving device operative to receive data indicative of at least one characteristic feature corresponding to a user;
• a display screen device;
• at least one actuator selectively operable to physically move the display screen device;
• at least one computer in operative connection with the at least one actuator and at least one data store, wherein the data store includes data representative of a plurality of characteristic features, and for each characteristic feature, a corresponding user and at least one interface parameter,
• wherein the at least one computer is operative responsive to the data receiving device receiving data indicative of at least one first user characteristic feature, to
• determine first user data corresponding to a first user,
• determine at least one first user interface parameter corresponding to the first user data, and
• cause the at least one actuator to either operate or not operate to physically move the display screen device based on the at least one first user interface parameter.

An automated financial transaction apparatus comprising:

• a display screen device,
• at least one computer,
• wherein the at least one computer is operative to permit an authorized user to carry out a transaction,
• wherein the at least one computer is operative to cause to be determined for each respective one of a plurality of authorized users, at least one respective interface parameter correlated in at least one data store with the respective authorized user,
• wherein for each respective authorized user, the correlated at least one respective interface parameter includes a respective display screen device position, and
• wherein for each respective authorized user the at least one computer is operative to cause the display screen device to be physically moved to the respective display screen device position correlated with that respective authorized user in the at least one data store.
