Any Where Voting Using Biometric ATMs
Abstract
In this world of automation, there is a continuous need for the constant evolution and up gradation
of the existing mechanisms. There is an urge for automation wherein people do less work and
machines do more. This project aims at preventing long queues in Polling booths by providing a
facility to vote with the help of Finger Print Scanner. Normally most of the people who do not vote
are outstation people who have gone either for work or any important business. As they cannot
return to their home town to vote within a single day generally polling percentage is very low.
Further due to less number of polling booths there are long queues. To avoid all these problems, the
project aims at converting ATMs into polling booths with just the software changes and less addition
of hardware.
In any polling booth the tedious and time consuming process is the voter verification system and
maintenance of so many documents and records. Sometimes they become the reason for conflicts
arising at the booths. This can be best avoided if the system consists of a tamper proof card wherein
all the records about the person are stored. The voter need not get to the officers at the polling
booths but instead can go direct to the machine. His Finger Print Scanner will communicate with the
PC placed at the officers desk and his details can be verified by the officers. If need arises there can
also be a provision for officers to press the control button the voting machine gets activated and the
voter can cast his vote.
Further a lot of authentication such as authorized counting, authorized start and stop of voting,
details of candidates, votes obtained by each candidates all are done by the machine and there is no
manual work.It prevents fraudulent entries, fraudulent voter ID cards, Voter intimidation at booths,
disputes at booths between political observers. The whole process is highly secure, fully automatic
with less or no manual work involved. There is no need to maintain too many records which reduces
manual errors.

Existing System
1. In the Existing system, the voters have to meet officers at the polling booth for personal
verification before voting
2. Vote counting should be done manually.

Proposed System
1. The system consists of a tamper proof card wherein all the records about the person are
stored in computer
2. The voter need not get to the officers at the polling booths but instead can go direct to the
machine.
