Zusammenfassung:Method for improving the accessibility of a self-service terminal (SST) (30), comprises the steps of: sensing the position of a user with respect to the SST (30); and adjusting the position or orientation of user-interfacing element (36,38) of the SST with reference to the sensed position of the user such that the element (36,38) is more readily accessible to the user. INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for the following: (a) self-service terminal. Apparatus for improving the accessibility of a self-service terminal (SST) (50) comprises a sensor (52) for detecting the height of a user and a drive arrangement (84, 88) for moving a section of the terminal fascia incorporating a user-interfacing element such as a monitor (58) or keypad (62). The drive arrangement adjusts the position and orientation of the user-interfacing element to an optimum location relative to the detected height of the user.
