ABSTRACT:
Systems which comprise (a) an automatic teller machine which includes a plurality of customer interfaces such as a bank card reader, a banking record dispenser, a cash dispenser, and a receptacle for receiving bank deposits; (b) infrared remote communication emitters and (c) individual short range infrared communication emitters located in the teller machine. The emitters (b) are adapted to provide repeating, directionally sensitive frequency modulated message signals identifying the direction to and location of the teller machine. Thus a person having a portable receiver for such signals is led to the machine and is enabled to position himself/herself in front of the machine in order to operate it. The respective emitters of (c) provide a separate repeating, directionally sensitive frequency modulated message signal which at least identifies the location of the respective customer interfaces on the teller machine so that by movement of the portable receiver in front of the machine, the location on the teller machine of the respective customer interfaces can be determined. Feedback concerning the transactions can also be provided from the system to the customer through the portable receiver.
