Make an Arduino-controlled Voting System

For groups, clubs and other smaller organisations that require a simple yet accurate voting system, the following Arduino-based solution by Frank Donald will solve the problem. His system allows for four possible candidates, and each voter may only vote once.

With a little supervision the system works well and the results can be displayed in the Arduino IDE's serial monitor, or with some modification a connected LCD. Frank runs us through his voting system in the following video:

As always if you want to modify this to meet your own needs - this can easily be done. However for complete details, visit Frank's detailed website. And for more, we're on facebookGoogle+, and twitter - so follow us for news and product updates as well.

Looking for a rapid-use LCD for your Arduino or compatible development boards such as the example above? Save time and move forward with the Freetronics LCD & Keypad shield which contains a bright 16x2 character LCD and five buttons that can be read from only one analogue input pin:
