Smart Voting System Project
Objective
- To develop a smart voting system based on Internet of Things (IoT) using Rasperrybito efficiently manage the voting process.
Project Overview
A enormous amount of money is involved in conducting an election. But, nowadays it will be very difficult to conduct good and fair election in all the places. Some forces try to disrupt the elections using some technologies. So it is necessary to secure the voting system with latest technologies.The two level of authentication need to be implemented to improve the security mechanism in system. If anyone try to caste fake vote, he/she need to be identified priorly and steps need to be taken to have fair election.
Electronic voting system refer’s to voting using electronic mediums and smart voting system refers voting system using IoT. In recent times, we are facing many problems like travelling long distance, spending huge money to travel. From the government perspectives, they need to deploy huge man power, infrastructure and machines. Both point of view, its complex process. This decade utilized the advantages of new technology in many fields. This project concentrates on improving the voting system with new IoT and other latest features.
Proposed System
The proposed Smart Voting System IoT based smart voting system concentrates on automating the voting process with good accuracy and efficiency.Internet of things is made up of many devices like simple sensors, smart phones and wearable sensors and etc., For the purpose of developing good an IOT infrastructure, we need to configure the hardware with software and control the devices over the internet. In order to help this process, raspberry pi can be used. This raspberry pi platform is used for creating new environment internet of things infrastructure. The proposed system architecture is shown in following figure.
- Before starting the process, it needs some settings. Server with client PC’s needs to be set carefully over the large area. This connection might be wireless. Then actual voting can taken place. Voting machine is connected to laptops.
Working Principle
- The process is started with voter submit the unique identification number with fingerprint on the authorization unit. This detail is sent to the server.
- Data will be verified. If the data found to be correct, then authorized user information will be displayed, else he/she will not be permitted to vote.
- Once verification is done, then voter can go to the voting machine and he/she can register the vote. Voter will get the receipt for the voting.
Smart Voting System Advantages
- It can be used for long distance voting.
- It saves time, money, otherextra efforts to reach the voting place.
- Less human effort is required.
- Counting of votes could be done immediately after voting completed.
- Easy installation and less effort is required.
Future Scope
- Aadhar card can be used in future to get more details.in
- Audio signal can be used in future to get the best results.
Components / Software /Hardware’s Required
