 ABSTRACT

 In democratic societies, voting is an important tool to

collect and re-act people thinking’s. Traditionally, voting
is conducted in centralized or distributed places called
polling booths.
 Due to the changes occurred in the technology, so many
advancements were introduced in the field of voting.
 But this electronic voting machine is a unique and
new concept which saves a lot of time and avoids the
false voting by a false person.

 INTRODUCTION
 This project is designed for electronic voting machine
by using the fingerprint identificationmethod.
 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 voterfrom polling.

 HARDWARE REQUIRMENTS

ATMEGA 328 :-
 ATmega328 is commonly used in many projects and autonomous systems
where a simple, low-powered, low-cost micro-controller is needed.
 The most common implementation of this chip is on the popular Arduino
development platform, namely the Arduino Uno, Arduino Pro Mini
and Arduino nano models.

12/1/22 9
 KEYPAD :-
 A keypad is a block or pad of buttons set with an arrangement of digits,
symbols, or alphabetical letters. Pads mostly containing numbers and used
with computers are numeric keypads.
 A computer keyboard usually has a small numeric keypad on the side, in
addition to the other number keys on the top, but with a calculator-style
arrangement of buttons that allow more efficient entry of numerical data.

12/1/22 10
 FINGERPRINT MODUALE :-
 Everyone has patterns of friction ridges on their fingers, and it is this
pattern that is called the fingerprint. Fingerprints are uniquely detailed,
durable over an individual's lifetime, and difficult to
 All fingerprint scanners are susceptible to be fooled by a technique that
involves photographing fingerprints, processing the photographs using
special software, and printing fingerprint replicas using a 3D printer. alter.

12/1/22 11
 LCD :-
 A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically
modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid
crystals combined with polarizers.
 LCDs are used in a wide range of applications, including LCD televisions,
computer monitors,  instrument panels, aircraft cockpit displays, and
indoor and outdoor signage.

12/1/22 12
 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
ARDUINO :-
 It is an open-source hardware and software company, project, and user
community
 That designs and manufactures single-board microcontrollers
and microcontroller kits for building digital devices.

12/1/22 13
 PROTUES :-
 The Proteus Design Suite is a Windows application for schematic capture,
simulation, and PCB (Printed Circuit Board ) layout design. 
 Schematic capture in the Proteus Design Suite is used for both the
simulation of designs and as the design phase of a PCB layout project.

 ADVANTAGES
 Cost effective
 Low power consumption
 It is economical
 Less manpower requiredTime
 countingAvoids invalid voting.
 Saves transportation cost
 compact size.
 Convenient on the part of voter.

12/1/22 15
 DISADVANTAGES
 The collection of fingerprints of all the voters
is little difficult.
 Only fingerprints of the voters is identified
instead of identifying the persons

 APPLICATIONS
• Fast track voting which could be used in small scale
elections
• resident welfare association, “panchayat” level
election and other society level elections, where
results can be instantaneous.
• It could also be used to conduct opinion polls during
annual shareholders meeting.
• It could also be used to conduct general assembly
elections where number of candidates are less than or
equal to eight in the current situation, on a small scale
12/1/22 17
 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 officesof the election
conducting authority.

12/1/22 18
 CONCLUSION
• 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.
