  • the abnormality detector 40 detects it. It is highly probable that the image obtained at the time the abnormality was detected, will include evidence, such as the appearance of a criminal and the clothes the criminal was wearing. Therefore, when police, security guards or third parties arrive at the crime scene in response to a notification that an abnormality occurred, they can examine the image on the screen 2 and obtain information which will assist them in immediately identifying the criminal. As a result, the criminal who has not left the immediate vicinity of the crime scene can be found in a short period of time.
  • Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing crime prevention processing according to this embodiment of the present invention.
  • the abnormality detector 40 detects the occurrence of an abnormality

  • the display controller 20 first displays the image obtained by the camera 3 on the screen 2. Further when a switch 12, which is additionally provided for the automatic transaction apparatus (see Figs.
  • the camera 3 may be set to constantly take images. Therefore, when the abnormality detector 40 detects an abnormality, the controller 10 can read one frame of image obtained at the time the abnormality occurred and output it to the display controller 20.
  • a replay device for displaying an arbitrary image for each frame on the screen 2 may be provided for the automatic transaction apparatus.
  • the automatic transaction apparatus in this embodiment is not limited to an automated-teller machine which is installed in a financial facility, but can also be applied for an automated-teller machine installed in another location (e.g., a convenience store), and for an automatic transaction apparatus by which transactions are performed to provide various products and services.
  • an image obtained at the time the abnormality occurred is displayed on the screen of the apparatus. Therefore, security guards who arrive in response to a report that an abnormality has occurred can view the image to obtain information, such as a likeness or a description of the clothing of a criminal, they require to find him or her. Therefore, the probability is increased that the criminal will be found comparatively quickly. As a result, since the crime prevention function is enhanced, the occurrences of crimes can be prevented.
  • the present invention may be employed with any kind of transaction machine vulnerable to attack by criminals regardless of whether it holds cash or valuables.
  • an abnormality detector this is not essential and any kind of detector may be employed to detect the presence of a person in some way, for example a motion detector, proximity detector, contact detector or the like. In this case, image data of legitimate users as well as criminals is captured.
  • frames of image data are stored and displayed in response to detection of an abnormality.
  • this is not essential and frames from the camera may be stored during every interaction (including legitimate use) of a person with the machine.
  • the stored images are conveniently displayed during times when no transaction information is being shown on the screen. For example, an image of the last person to attend the machine may be left on the display until such time as a next transaction is initiated.
  • the captured image is displayed on the display screen as soon as it is obtained.
  • a specific button or input procedure may be provided to initiate display of the captured image(s) at the request of security personnel. In this way, the risk of damage to the screen by a criminal is reduced.
  • the camera or image capture means may be combined with other sensory devices, for example a microphone to pick up audio information which is stored along with the image frames.
