Design of Preferential Electronic Voting Machine using AVR series Microcontroller

Abstract Advancement in technology has lead to wide acceptance of Electronic Voting Machines in different areas of application. There is a need and demand of developing advanced voting machines for variety of applications. Preferential voting is technically complex process, right from voting up to counting and deciding the result. The Preferential Electronic Voting machine has been designed and developed taking care to see to it that it is efficient, effective, useful and at the same time remains user friendly, both from the point of view of the voter and the election conducting agency. The system has been designed, constructed and tested using different combinations of trial to ensure the proper functioning and validation of the machine.
