The ReVote Electronic Voting System allows Users to carry out all the operations of management of the Assembly works in a simple and intuitive way.
Participants can access the voting thanks to the Voting Terminals made with Tablets and Notebooks equipped with WIFI or 4G connectivity that connect to a private network.
The data connection between the Tablets and the Central Unit is encrypted with the TLS protocol to guarantee full voting security.
Board Members can interface with each other remotely thanks to Videoconferencing systems (Zoom, WebEx) integrated in ReVote. The Videoconference player allows you to follow and intervene in the debate.
The debate and voting session takes place as follows:
-
Initialization. The President opens the session from his Tablet Console set up to manage the session.
-
Login. A screen for recognizing the voter opens on the Tablet Voting Terminal. The Board Member enters personal credentials and logs into the system.
-
Oratories. The system enters the Speakers stage for managing the debate. The participant in the debate can register to speak via the blue "Word Reservation" button on the Tablet. The Chairman gives the floor on the basis of the temporal order of booking or at his own discretion by pressing the appropriate buttons on the Tablet Console.
-
Vote. The President, from the Tablet Console, chooses the type of vote and presses the opening button. The screen that allows you to vote via the voting keyboard appears on the Board Member Tablet Terminal. It is possible to express and / or modify one's vote until the end of the vote itself. During the voting process, the synoptic list of votes is displayed on the Tablet as they are cast. Once the voting operations have been completed, the Chairman closes the voting and starts the display of the results from the Tablet Console. On the Tablet Terminals of the Board Members, in real time, the Results and the Outcome of the vote appear.

The Elements of the ReVote System
Central Unit
The Central Unit, configured for the ReVote system, is a high performance Server on which the various applications of the voting system run.
The unit connects to the LAN and interfaces, through the local and public network, with all the components.
Chairman's Console
The Command Console of the ReVote system is the tool through which it is possible to direct the vote, from the opening phase to the publication of the results.
It is also possible to conduct the debate, regulating the interventions and limiting the time.
Voting Terminal
The Voting Terminal of the ReVote solution is a Tablet with MS Windows operating system in Kiosk mode.
The interaction with the voting system involves authentication with the server via PIN to ensure uniqueness and security in voting.
Router (VPN)
As an alternative to the local network of the institution, it is possible to use a dedicated ReVote data line with a VPN router.
The connection will be activated in secure mode and will interface with the central unit of the on-site system.
Zoom Video Conference
The ReVote System natively integrates the Zoom Video Conference. Within the Voting Terminal there is the player to view and listen to the session. The VC Zoom is equipped with a management backend that allows you to activate the word to individual interlocutors.
Video Assembly
The ReVote solution integrates with the Video Assembly platform allowing the streaming transmission of the sessions on the internet, the indexing of the debate, archiving and use in VOD (Video on Demand) mode.
