Design and implementation of microprocessor based electronic voting system

Abstract

In this paper, we described the design and hardware implementation of an electronic voting machine. The main aim of this project is not to design a power efficient perfect device but is to design a mother device that can be adoptable to any recent technologies. The design of the machine and its usage is as simple as an illiterate common people can easily use it. A vote casting procedure is also proposed to use the machine where we prescribed a new procedure called DEMO vote casting which is a testing mechanism to test the device before vote casting and also at the run time. The vote casting system is almost similar to traditional system, only ballot box will be replaced by the device. The machine uses voter ID to identify a valid voter and restrict multiple vote casting.
