, Description:DESCRIPTION:
FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention generally relates to a AI biometric voting system. More specifically, the biometric voting system is designed for company elections, college elections and survey.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Conventional voting systems around the world utilize either paper ballots or mechanical voting booths having mechanical switches. These conventional systems present a number of problems for election processes. For example, paper ballots can become physically damaged or altered between the time the voter makes his or her selection and the time a ballot-counting machine eventually reads the voter's selection on the ballot.
Voter identification is generally required during two phases of the electoral process: first for voter registration in order to establish the right to vote and afterwards, at voting time, to allow a citizen to exercise their right to vote by verifying if the person satisfies all the requirements needed to vote (authentication). In most countries this process of voter authentication and verification of identity is done manually, but some countries have implemented and others are experimenting with an automated or at least semi-automated method to verify the identity of voters and their right to vote.
However, the technologies and voting methods developed are insufficient in adequately addressing the ever increasing needs for voter security and the accuracy and integrity of elections that currently exist. The present disclosure addresses problems associated with existing mechanical and electronic voting systems, including those mentioned above, and provides an increased level of security, confidence and economic advantage.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
The principal object of the invention is to provide biometric voting system for company elections and college elections.
Another object of the invention is to obtain secure verification of the voter by using different verification methods that includes fingerprint verification, retina scan verification, SMS based verification, emails based verification, face recognition verification.
Another object of the invention is to send the voting link to the voter remotely.
Another object of the invention is to enable the user to select different plans in the voting dashboard based on the number of voters.
Another object of the invention is to allow the user to perform both election and survey.
