There are more practical security concerns that ATMs should focus on first. Their system for tracking unusual purchases could be improved, more people could use two factor authentication, etc.

This is a drastic measure which would be a expensive to roll out. There are more practical things they should fix first.

Side note, ATMs do take a picture every time anyone uses them. Police can use these to investigate fraud.
