Aadhaar Based Voting System using Fingerprint Scanner

Electronics Engineering

The project is designed to make a single system which can authenticate the voter as well as perform vote casting. Because security is a major concern for every voting system. Reckoning the increasing security threats, it becomes very necessary to prevent it from fake voting. Hence, the need for such type of system which uses biometric information to verify the valid voter. The system ensures authentication of an individual by matching fingerprints and eligibility is checked by calculating the age of the voter thus making the existing voting cards redundant. This project proposes a secure on-line e-voting system that uses UIDAI or Aadhaar info as its backend. At the time of voting in the elections, Voter has to enter his/her Aadhaar ID. If that ID is present in our database, Detail of info of voter will be displayed in Monitor. Then it drives the next finger authentication stage. Otherwise it will end the session. The authentication can be done using finger vein sensing with the help of fingerprint module. It allows the authenticated voters to vote on voting server.
