Preventing election fraud
Postal voting increases the risk of election fraud because signatures are captured in isolation by voters. The Wacom Ink SDK for verification helps mitigate this by:
- Enabling fast, accurate, reliable verification of handwritten signatures after the fact.
- Integrating easily with vote checking solutions so that thousands of signatures can be verified within hours.
- Continuously improving the verification engine, ensuring that accuracy rates improve still further over time.
