AutoMARK® Voter Assist Terminal
Most polling places in the USA use optically scanned paper ballots that can be hard for a mobility impaired, vision impaired or non-English speaker to use. The AutoMARK® Voter Assist Terminal lets the voter interact with a large, bright color screen or audio prompts to enter his or her vote. When complete, the terminal prints out a paper ballot ready to be counted with the rest of the paper ballots. By adding only one Voter Assist Terminal per polling place, all voters can have the same, private, voting experience.
The graphics system supports the full international Unicode Font library of Microsoft Windows CE 5.0. Through a LVDS interface, the system drivers provide a bright, XGA display in portrait mode with full 24-bit color depth. For interaction, it supports an accurate five-wire touch-screen system. For visually impaired voters, the screen can move to a high contrast mode of white on black, and for blind voters, there is an audio plug and Braille keypad to allow interaction without visual interpretation.
