Intelligent Voting Machine with a Finger Print Sensor and GSM Modem

In the present voting system the voter should show the voter identity card or some other photo identity cards for verification at the time of voting which raise confusions. This innovation is to overcome the problems which arise during verification process and to give an authentication to the voter. The system consists of finger print sensor and a GSM modem. Finger print sensor is used for recognition. Since no human in the universe have the same finger print, this also works for the identical twins. . A finger print sensor is an electronic device used to capture the digital image of finger print pattern, then it is compared with the existing database with the help of microcontroller and the details are displayed through the LCD display. A buzzer is provided to indicate the confirmation of verification. This Intelligent Voting Machine also gives protection from forgery like false fingerprint by sending a confirmation message to the voter’s mobile phone. This is done by a GSM modem which connected with the PC. Once the vote has been casted by the voter, the mobile number of the voter is traced and an acknowledgement is sent to the voter’s mobile.
