Biometric Voting Machine Based on Fingerprint Scanner and Arduino

EasyChair Preprint 5805

Abstract

Biometrics is the science and technology of measuring and analyzing biological data. Biometrics refers to technologies that measure, analyze human body characteristics and used for authentication purposes. The field of biometrics was formed and has since expanded onto many types of physical identification. The conventional system for voting is ballot paper and Electronic Voting Machine (EVM).

In this paper we propose a biometric voting machine using fingerprint scanner and Arduino. In this system, a person has to enroll fingerprint with the system which will be centrally stored in the Arduino. The person has to place finger over fingerprint module, if the fingerprint is matched with the prestored data, then LCD will display as authorized voter and the person can cast a vote. For conformation to voter, the name of the candidate will be displayed on LCD for whom the voter has cast a vote. It has simple hardware design and is easily accessible.

Keyphrases: Biometric, EVM, Fingerprint, LCD, keys
