  • Publication number: 20230419281
    Abstract: An ATM system includes a back-end server, an ATM central processing unit (ATM CPU) that receives information relating to the ATM system and a mobile computer. The mobile computer provides a CPU (MC CPU) and a keypad. The mobile computer may also provide a touch screen configured to display an initial ATM display. The ATM system also includes an interface system for interfacing between the ATM CPU and MC CPU. The back-end server formats and transmits to the ATM an API call. The API call requests a location of the user, ATM device information, and identification information of the user. The mobile computer is configured to respond to the API call by providing the location, the ATM device information, and the identification information of the user to the back-end server.

  • Patent number: 11640751
    Abstract: An ATM system is provided. The system may include a back-end server, an ATM CPU that receives information relating to the ATM, an ATM dispenser configured to dispense a cash withdrawal amount in the event that the ATM CPU receives information relating to a selection of a cash withdrawal amount and a mobile computer. The mobile computer may include a CPU, a keypad, a touch screen having a diagonal dimension of between 9 inches and 17 inches, and an interface system that interfaces between the ATM CPU and MC CPU, wherein the back-end server is configured to format and transmit an API call to request information regarding an ATM session. The ATM may be configured to respond to the API call and the back-end server is configured to respond to an API call response. The back-end server response may be further configured for display on the touch screen.
