Help with Wall Mount Design for an Electronic Device
(OP)
I'm currently working on the wall mount for an electronic terminal. With my current implementation, I am mounting the device flush to the wall with an aluminum bracket. This doesn't seem to look right, because the surface of the wall isn't always perfect. In other implementations I've seen, these electronic terminals are mounted to the wall on a bracket of some sort that protrudes from the wall. Is there a reason for this? Is it not advisable to mount an electronics terminal (with touch screen) flush to a wall?

Buy an example of every wall mount they sell.
Study the designs.
Then get back to us.

Where and how you mount anything is or at least, should be determined by who is going to use it and how, how portable and moveable the thing should be, and what structure is available for attachment. Also, what structure is not available for mounting or attachment. Don't forget to work out where the studs are in your wall.
Your terminal should be mounted somewhere close to your operator. If you operator will use the terminal a lot, you should investigate a comfortable working position.
Your question is completely open ended. Mounting any piece of equipment is not just a matter of mechanics of materials or hardware.
