Electronic Teller Machine Design Based On Ergonomics

As an important service channel of bank, financial self-service has been developed rapidly in these years. Besides a growth in number, a lot of new functions and applications have been invented and applied. After some research in current situation of financial self-service industry in our country and the increasing financial needs of people, an elaboration of the concept of new financial self-service equipment, which is called as electronic teller machine, is put forward; and a relevant solution for this concept product is delivered in this paper.The research and design process includes: firstly, based on the product concept, the product functions with the method of modularization are generated and grouped. Secondly, under the guidance of ergonomical basic principles, the product interface is built and optimized. Then a suitable space and intelligible information display system, which should be convenient for user, are arranged. Lastly, a final appearance and color solutions with the support of aesthetics theory is defined. In addition, some advices in design of bank branch are given in this thesis.The aim of this research is to apply, validate and discuss the modularization thought and relevant theory in ergonomics with the specific design practice, and also in hope of making this experience available to other products.
