AUGSBURG, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 24, 2016--
NCR
Corporation (NYSE: NCR), a global leader in omni-channel solutions,
has been recognized for its innovative product designs in two categories
with the prestigious German Design Award 2017. The German Design Council
has chosen NCR’s SelfServ 91 in the cantilever deployment as a winner in
the categories “Industry” as well as “Universal Design.”
Among the 4,000 entries, a jury of 48 international experts from various
disciplines selected NCR’s innovative ATM design for its unique
combination of design and its ability provide a barrier-free unique user
experience for modern banking.
The German Design Award is the top international prize of the German
Design Council that aims to discover, present and honor unique design
trends. The competition sets the highest standards when it comes to
selecting the prize winners and invites only those products and
communication design services to participate in the awards that have
demonstrated to stand out in their design quality. Those that are
selected as winners among a field of top-class competitors have
successfully proven themselves as some of the best in the world of
product design.
NCR has been focused on redesigning its products to enable a better user
experience. NCR’s growing omni-channel offerings include reliable,
secure, easy-to-use, and cost-effective solutions that are industry
hardened to create competitive advantages and personalized user
experiences consistent across multiple channels. While the features of
ATMs have evolved continuously since their invention, their fundamental
construction and build hasn’t been questioned. By placing the customer
interfaces at a 90° angle from the wall, the SelfServ 91 opens up a
variety of interior design options for banks. Furthermore, wheelchair
users can sit underneath and use it as easily as all other customers.
“We are grateful and proud to have been selected as a winner in not only
one, but two categories for this prestigious award,” says Adam Crighton,
vice president and general manager of Financial Services Hardware, NCR
Corporation. “This ATM design combines our standard-setting Interactive
Teller technology with our finest in product design. At first glance,
angling the interfaces may seem like a small change to make. But it has
a stunningly new visual effect and gives banks greater flexibility in
their branch interior design, while also providing much easier access
for wheelchair users than a common wall-sunk ATM would.”
