ImageCast®. X Application is an application used for touchscreen voting on tablets at a voting location, and a Democracy Suite election database. Voting sessions are initiated on the tablet by either a Smart card or the entry of a numeric code based on activation. The ballot is loaded directly onto the standalone device. All voting activity is performed at the tablet, including accessible voting. Accessible voting interfaces connect to the tablet via an adapter that supports most accessible devices, allowing voters to bring their own device. After review and completion of the ballot selections, a paper ballot is created for the voter from a printer in the voting booth, and the ballot is cast after insertion in a ballot box. The paper ballot is the official ballot. The ballots contain a textual representation of the voter’s ballot selections for visual review and confirmation, and the ballots are scanned using ImageCast Central Scanner and the results are accumulated in Democracy Suite RTR.
