Inventors include Dr. Diwakar Ramanuj Tripathi; and Shambhavi Vikrant Holay.

The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a Smart Voting System for Detection and Prevention of Fraud Voting using IoT, Adaptive Fraud Probability Engine and Multi-Factor Voter Authentication. The system integrates biometric authentication, Aadhaar validation, QR verification, artificial intelligence analytics, trust score generation, fraud probability computation, encrypted vote transmission, cloud monitoring, and cybersecurity mechanisms. A voter is authenticated through multiple verification layers, following which a trust score and fraud probability index are computed. Voting is permitted only when the trust score exceeds a predefined threshold and the fraud probability remains below a predetermined threshold. Votes are encrypted, securely transmitted to cloud election servers, and recorded within immutable audit repositories. The invention significantly enhances election security, transparency, reliability, scalability, and fraud prevention capabilities while enabling real-time election monitoring and centralized administration.
