Electoral fraud is common in most countries, especially in countries with weak rule of law. Fair and impartial election can change the way a country or an organization is run. Therefore, the aim of this thesis project was to design a voting system that could aid in fair and swift election. Since every human being has a unique fingerprint, the voting device was based on fingerprint authentication system.
This study reports mainly focuses on developing a prototype of embedded system that deals with Fingerprint voting system. The system integrates different hardware components like Arduino Uno microcontroller, fingerprint module (DY50), LCD (16x2), LEDs, switches, buzzer and resistors that facilitates a flawless voting system.
Firstly, schematic design was made using fritzing application with all connections before translating the project plan into physical prototype. Different components were then integrated using breadboard. After successful integration, the microcontroller was programmed using Arduino Software 1.8.10. Finally, the system was tested several times where processes like enrolment, authentication, vote submission and result were carried out flawlessly.
