Have ATMs changed since their invention? Hardly!


A concept ATM machine reminds us that cash dispensers have changed hardly at all since their introduction.

An exhibit at New York’s Museum of Modern Art shows that ATMs have hardly changed since their inception.  The Museum’s “Talk to me” exhibit, examines new and creative ways to interact with technology. One of the highlights is a concept ATM machine.

This concept ATM isn't just the normal functions of a cash machine plus style. It also makes change, offering the user bills in any denomination, a feature that many real ATMs offered as recently as 20 years ago. What we only sacrifice in the name of cost savings!
