Electronic Voting Machine: N.Pradeep Kumar Nayak-B090751EC

This document describes an electronic voting machine that uses fingerprint identification. The voting machine scans a voter's thumbprint to verify their identity and allow them to cast a vote. It discusses the advantages of the electronic voting machine like being faster and preventing human errors compared to traditional ballot boxes. The document also mentions some disadvantages, like the potential for hacking, and limitations in collecting all voters' fingerprints. It provides details on the hardware components, software, and algorithms used for fingerprint matching and extraction. Overall, the document proposes that this electronic voting machine improves security over traditional methods while being cost-effective and convenient for voters.

ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINE

N.PRADEEP KUMAR NAYAK-


INTRODUCTIO
N
• This project is designed for electronic voting machine by using the fingerprint identification
method.

• Here voter’s thumb impressions are used for identification.

• During voting when the voter places his/her thumb on the scanner, the system will
check
whether it matches with pre stored impressions in the database.

• If it matches then system will allow the voter to poll his vote and otherwise prevent the voter
from polling.
WHAT IS MEANT BY
VOTING?
• The objective of voting is to allow voters to exercise their right to express their
choices regarding specific issues.

• In a democracy, a government is chosen by voting in an election, a way for an


electorate to elect, i.e. choose, among several candidates for rule.
TOOLS IMPLEMENTED FOR
VOTING.
• Technology is being used more and more as a tool to assist voters to cast their votes.

• The two types of systems implemented for voting are:

1. Ballot box.

1. Electronic Voting Machine(EVM).


ELECTRONIC
VOTING
MACHINE(EVM
• EVMs were first used in the by-election to north paravur assembly constituency of
kerala in 1981.
• EVM consists of two parts: )
i) Balloting unit and Controlling unit.
ii) EVM reduce the time in both casting and declaring of results compared to ballot
box.
ADVANTAGES OF
EVM
• Ballot box systems are prone to human errors and lot of time consuming.

• EVM is human error free and time saver.

• Provide multiple languages to users who may not have English as a first language.

• EVM can provide headphones to read off instructions to the blind user.
DISADVANTAGES OF
EVM
• EVM are no different than websites or software; they can be penetrated and altered
by a hacker.

• Overall cost is high, physical tampering could be possible.

• Computer software and systems can have problems that may delay or even halt
voting.
FEATUR
ES
• Integrated image collecting and algorithm chip together

• Low power consumption, low cost, small size, excellent performance

• Professional optical technology, precise module manufacturing techniques

• Good image processing capabilities, can capture up to resolution 500 dpi(dots per
inch).
TECHNIQUES
INVOLVED
• The techniques used here are:

1. Extraction algorithm

2. Matching algorithm
SOFTWARE'S
USED..
The software's used in our project are:

1. Keil µ vision 3

2. Proteus
ADVANTAGE
S
• Cost effective
• Low power consumption
• It is economical
• Less manpower required
• Time conscious, as less time required for voting and counting
• Avoids invalid voting.
• Saves transportation cost due to its compact size.
• Convenient on the part of voter.
LIMITATIO
NS
• The limitations of this projects are:

• The collection of fingerprints of all the voters is little difficult.

• Only fingerprints of the voters is identified instead of identifying the persons


FUTURE
SCOPE
• Number of candidates could be increased.

• It could be interfaced with printer to get the hard copy of the result almost instantly
from the machine itself.

• Once the result is on the server it could be relayed on the network to various offices
of the election conducting authority.
CONCLUSIO
N
• This project can be used for voting since it overcome all the draw backs of ordinary
voting machine.
• It provide additional security.
• Its main advantage is that since fingerprints of every person is unique and hence this
system completely reduces the chance of invalid votes.
• The system can be manufactured simply as well as cheap.
