ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINE

摘要

Electronic Voting Machine is a very simple machine requiring minimal training on the part of election officials, contesting candidates and their agents and the voting public. It is an electronic instrument based on a micro controller designed to collect, record and store, count and display the voting data. The voter has to simple press a button (8) to vote in favour of a candidate of his/her choice. The votes polled for each candidate of his/her choice are duly recorded in a memory module. The votes polled for each candidate can be displayed immediately after the poll by the press of a button (9). The machine incorporates several unique mechanical, electrical and software security features to ensure and protect the integrity of the voting data. The machine retains many of the time tested features and operational sequences of the conventional ballot paper method to enable quick adaptability.
