This document describes a minor project presentation for an online voting system created by a team of 4 students. The proposed system aims to allow Indian citizens over 18 to vote online through a centralized database maintained by the Election Commission of India. It authenticates users by matching their information to the database. Users can register online and then login to vote using a username and password. The system is intended to overcome limitations of existing online and electronic voting systems like physical security and vote tampering. It uses fingerprint verification for identification and provides administrators and users modules to manage the system and voting process. It also includes a vote counting module to calculate and display results.
