Electronic Voting Machine Based On Biometrics.: Be Project Group-2 Project Guide: Mrs. Neeru Pathak

This document proposes an electronic voting machine based on biometrics such as fingerprints. It identifies drawbacks of traditional paper ballot and electronic voting methods, such as being unsecured and prone to fraud. The proposed system uses a centralized database connected to local databases at polling stations. Voters would enroll and authenticate using fingerprints, then cast votes on a touchscreen display. Results would be tallied and declared. The system aims to make voting more secure, accurate and transparent through the use of biometric authentication and encryption.

PROJECT GUIDE :
MRS. NEERU PATHAK
VOTING in INDIA
Why secured voting system is
necessary ?
1. Will help to elect the deserving
candidate
2. To increase accuracy and
impartiality
3. Scaling down illegal votes
4. To widen transparency between the
citizen and government to achieve
trust of voters
METHODS USED FOR VOTING
TILL NOW
● PAPER BALLOT VOTING

Casting of Collection of Counting of Result


vote vote in ballot votes declaration

➢ Drawbacks
● Votes cannot be stored for long
period
● Time consuming
● Less secured
● Fake votes
● ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINE (EVM)

Manual
Collection of Declaration of
Authentication Casting of vote Tally of votes
printed slips result

➢ Drawbacks of EVM
● Prone to fraud
● Tedious to handle
● Voter is identified manually
● Tampering of hardware is possible
● Invalid vote cannot be detected

CONCLUSION
● Importance of Biometric Voting system
● The main advantage of this method is we can vote in India at any location using our UIDAI
● The advantages of this system are economic, faster tabulation of results, improved
accessibility, greater accuracy, and lower risk of human and mechanical errors
● Database consisting of the details like age, gender, place of voter, biometric data of the voter is
present so we can easily find out the percentage of voters by age group as well as by gender in
elections
● Once the polling machine is programmed even the manufacturer cannot reprogram because it
is one time programmable
FUTURE SCOPE
● Providing secure channels, encrypt data, and protect servers
● Increase security levels of the admin login process by adding a second level of security
● Using a twain driver for the fingerprint scanner will allow the web application to read
fingerprint data through the finger scanner directly, and send it to the web service for
verification
● Using the GSM module in the circuit we can send a message to the voters before and
after voting
● System can be further improved by adding face detection technology.
● Retina scanning can also be implemented
