Oliver Devereux's Problem Solving Experience:

  1. I came up with an idea of a randomly allocated ATM digit device. The same idea was patented a year before my entry into a Business Plan competition by a German Engineer, so the idea is solid.

    It consisted of diagonally sectioned digits made out of see-through plexiglass so only the user of the ATM could look down on the digits and see them, preventing skimmers with cameras attached to the ATM to see the numbers. The numbers themselves would randomly change location on the 12 digit keypad increasing security further.
