This document describes a smart card and GSM based voting machine project. The project aims to allow remote voting from anywhere using a smart card for authentication and an electronic voting machine connected to a GSM modem. Key components include a microcontroller, smart card reader, LCD display, GSM modem, and MAX232 for serial communication. The system would use smart cards issued by the Election Commission to authenticate voters and allow casting votes via the electronic voting machine. Votes would be sent remotely as text messages via the GSM network to a monitoring station.
