Which biometric machine workswith My Abhyasika?

These 6 machines are the ones we support. Buy one online, fix it at your gate, and your library starts marking entry and exit on its own. Not sure which — message us, we will pick it for you.

Machines we support

All of them are eSSL machines sold in India. Fingerprint works on every model here. Face recognition is still being verified by our team, so those models are marked.

Ask us before buyingSee it on Amazon

Amazon links are affiliate links — the price you pay stays the same. We do not sell hardware ourselves.

Not sure which one to pick?

Three situations cover almost every library

1

Buying your first machine?

Take the eSSL K90 Pro. It is the cheapest way in, it is the machine we have run the longest, and fingerprint is proven.

2

Want students to not touch anything?

A face machine is the touchless option, but face enrollment is still being verified by our team. Message us before you buy one.

3

Already own a machine?

Do not buy again. Most eSSL and ZKTeco machines with a Cloud Server (ADMS) setting already work — send us the model and we will check.

Every machine here works the same way

Whichever one you buy, this is what happens at your library

Only needs internet

LAN cable or WiFi at your gate. No computer to buy, install or keep switched on.

Marks entry and exit itself

Every touch reaches My Abhyasika on its own, all day, with no staff work.

Survives an internet cut

The machine keeps recording offline and sends everything once the line is back.

Expired plan, no entry

A student whose plan has ended stops being let in — automatically, no reminder needed.

One machine per gate

Add as many as your branches need. Each one reports into the same dashboard.

See who is inside now

Your Entry & Exit screen shows who is sitting in the library at this moment.

Questions library owners ask

Which biometric machine should I buy for my library?

The eSSL K90 Pro is the machine we recommend for most libraries. It is a fingerprint machine, it is the one we have tested the longest with My Abhyasika, and it is the cheapest way to start. The eSSL X990 is the same idea in a different body.

Do face recognition machines work with My Abhyasika?

The face machines listed here connect to My Abhyasika and their fingerprint side works today. Face enrollment — sending a student's photo to the machine — is still being verified on real hardware, so buy a face machine only after messaging us.

Do I need a computer at the library for the biometric machine?

No. The machine only needs internet — a LAN cable or WiFi. It talks to My Abhyasika directly, so no computer, no software install and nothing to keep switched on at the library.

I already have a biometric machine. Will it work?

If it is an eSSL or ZKTeco machine with a Cloud Server (ADMS) setting, it very likely works even if the model is not on this list. Message us with the brand and model printed on the machine and we will tell you before you change anything.

Buy the machine, we do the rest

Start your library on My Abhyasika free, then add the machine whenever it arrives. Setup takes one evening.
