DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an input device for data input, an automatic transaction device for automatic transaction, and a display control method therefor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, automated equipment used by an unspecified number of users has been developed. For example, a bank terminal that deposits cash instead of a bank counter, a so-called automatic transaction device (AT)
M), an automatic ticket vending machine that sells railway tickets, an automatic commuter ticket issuing machine that issues commuter passes, a map guidance system that guides the destination, a library search system for libraries, etc.
It is used as a social system.

[0003] In these automated devices, a touch-type input device used in combination with a liquid crystal display or a CRT display is mainly used. A sheet (generally called a touch panel) that detects the position of the screen touched by a finger or the like by an operator is pasted on a liquid crystal display or the like.
A capacitance type, an infrared (light) type, and the like are known.

An advantage of the touch-type input device is that a complicated input item is displayed on a plurality of variable screens, and the item can be easily selected from among the input items. Can be easily dealt with only by changing display data and internal input data. There is also an advantage that easy operability can be provided to a user who has resistance to keyboard and button operations.

[0005] The functions of advanced automation systems have become more sophisticated,
The system is complicated, and it is difficult to realize the system without using such a touch-type input device. As an actual use example of the touch-type input device, in the case of an automatic transaction device (ATM) such as a bank, first, an authentication medium, for example, a card is inserted into the device by a user, and authentication information recorded on the authentication medium is used. Is read by a card reader in the apparatus. Then, the personal identification number input by the user's touch operation is compared with the personal identification number included in the read authentication information, and only when the two personal identification numbers match, the subsequent transaction (for example, , Deposit and withdrawal transactions).

[0006]

A plurality of numeric keys are used for inputting a password, but the arrangement of these keys is always fixed. In addition, ATM placement in financial institutions is not in an environment where information can be completely shut off from the surroundings (adjacent ATM users, people waiting in the back row, and even people in the lobby).

[0007] For this reason, there is a possibility that the input password of the user is stolen by the left and right ATM operators or by a third party in the back row if he / she intends to read it consciously. Also, if you try to steal intentionally (crime?), It may be stealed by a third party in the lobby.

[0008] In the unlikely event that a card is misplaced,
Or, if the card has been dropped, or even if the card has been intentionally stolen by a criminal (not to be understood by the person)
In that case, first (until the person becomes aware of the condition and notifies a bank or the like to that effect and the financial institution prohibits access to the account), the password becomes the only defense means. That is, the personal identification number is extremely important information, and means for preventing leakage of the personal identification number will be required in the future.

It is said that internationalization and organization of crime have recently been progressing. Under these circumstances, it is urgently necessary to build a safer security system. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and has as its object to provide an input device with excellent safety and reliability capable of preventing data input by key operation from leaking outside, and its display control. It is to provide a method.

Further, the present invention provides an automatic transaction apparatus having excellent security and reliability and a display control method for the same, which can prevent data for automatic transaction inputted by key operation from leaking outside. Offering is sleepy.
