Palm-sized. Battery-powered. Ready in any classroom.
The TAMS device is a handheld biometric terminal designed and built in India. No wall mounting, no wiring — the teacher simply carries it to the lecture and passes it around.
Everything in the palm of your hand
Fingerprint scanner
Reads reliably even with the darkest mehndi. Available with an optical or a capacitive sensor — the capacitive sensor also rejects fake fingers.
Built-in RFID reader
Students can tap their existing college ID cards, and teachers can start a lecture by tapping the room’s RFID tag.
Rechargeable battery
An 1800 mAh battery that lasts a full week of lectures on a single charge.
Offline memory
Keeps attendance safely in memory when there is no network and syncs as soon as it can.
Light & portable
Just 150 g, with a lanyard — small enough to pass from bench to bench in seconds.
Private by design
Stores only fingerprint templates on the sensor — never fingerprint images.
Choose how the device connects
Both models offer the same fingerprint and RFID features and the same reports.

Pairs with the TAMS Attendance App on the teacher’s phone, which shows the live class list and handles the sync. Ideal when teachers already use smartphones in class.
