Biometric and iot based innovative voting machine

Electrical Engineering

The embedded system based voting machine which includes the developments towards electronic data storage and transmission. Finger print devices for Voting machines and other existing identity documents are discussed and implemented in this project. The user has to show his voter ID card whenever he goes to the polling booth to poll his vote. This is a time consuming process as the person has to check the voter ID card with the list he has, confirm it as an authorized card and then allow the person to poll his vote. Thus, to avoid this kind of problems, we have designed a finger print based voting machine where the person no need to carry his ID which contains his entire details. The person at the polling booth has to show his Finger. This Finger print reader reads the details from the tag. This data is passed to the controlling unit for the verification. The controller reads the data from the reader and compares this data with the already existing data. If the data matches with the already stored information, the person is allowed to poll his vote. If not, a message is displayed on LCD and the person is not allowed to poll his vote. The polling mechanism carries out manually using the switches. LCD is used to display the related messages. And also live monitoring of the voting process can be achieved using the Wi-Fi module
