INTRODUCTION
• Our project utilises the concepts taught in the 19CCE201 Course like LED
Blinking, Serial Communication using UART and LCD Configuration to create an
Electronic Voting Machine.

• The Voting Machine is created with the names of the registered candidates and the
number of registered voters is predefined in the code.

• A button is assigned to every candidate and acts as a Ballot that the voters use
to cast their votes.

• After the process of voting is completed, the winner is declared, and the vote
count is displayed.
EVM
ALGORITHM
• Initialise Header Files.
• Create a function delay() that runs a nested loop to wait for a time.
• Creating 2 functions TERMINAL_INIT() and LCD_INIT() to initialise
the virtual terminal and LCD.
• A function LCD_String() to print an array of characters.
• Declaring and initialising the required variables.

• Inside the main():


• select the respective Port Pins and set them as Input/Output accordingly.
• Using LSR, check if U0THR is not empty and then print the characters in Virtual
Terminal.
• For 'n' registered voters, display the candidates list.

• Get the votes from each of the voters and add up the vote count for every
candidate.

• After the last vote is cast , run condition to check which candidate had the most
votes.

• Using UART0, transmit the details of the winner to the virtual terminal.
ASSUMPTIONS
• The code assumes that the number of Registered Voters has been pre-determined by
the Election Officers beforehand.

• The assumed number of registered candidates contesting in the election is 4.


+ Additional blocks of code can be added in for every new candidate registered as per
Election Commission Rules.
+ Provisions in the EVM are modified accordingly.

• NOTA(NONE OF THE ABOVE) option available on the EVM is assumed to be Candidate


4 here.

• Due Procedure regarding enforcement of Model Election Rules are followed.


CIRCUIT
DIAGRAM
LIMITATIONS AND SCOPE FOR
IMPROVEMENT
• More security procedures could be added in the code, verifying the
authenticity of Counting Officers and preventing tampering of the EVM.

• Since a 16x2 LCD is being used, the votes of all the candidates cannot be shown
simultaneously.

• Large number of candidates results in many buttons used, but the number of lines
are fixed.

• Votes of the candidates could be concealed in the LCD Display to prevent


unnecessary influencing of voters.
