DMIT Software: What Ten Fingerprints Actually Measure - Patterns, Ridge Counts, Brain Lobes and Multiple Intelligences
5 November 2026
DMIT - the Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Test - reads fingerprint ridge patterns as a map of inborn learning tendencies. The Astrometry DMIT software takes photographs of all ten fingerprints and produces a structured PDF report covering brain-lobe balance, multiple intelligences, learning style, quotients, stream selection and career suggestions. Two things are worth knowing up front: every step runs from a fixed, deterministic rulebook with no AI involved, and the fingerprint images never leave your browser - only the measurements are kept. This guide explains what the software actually measures.
The capture workflow
The software follows a supplied six-step workflow for all ten fingers - left hand L1 to L5 and right hand R1 to R5, thumb to little finger. Prints can be captured by camera or scanner, and each capture is checked against minimum quality and confidence thresholds before it is accepted, so a smudged or partial print is retaken rather than misread. Before capture begins, the software shows consent items that the user or parent must accept.
The seven ridge patterns
Every fingerprint is classified into one of seven pattern types:
| Code | Pattern | Family |
|---|---|---|
| WT | Whorl (concentric) | Whorl |
| WS | Whorl (spiral) | Whorl |
| WD | Double loop whorl | Whorl |
| UL | Ulnar loop | Loop |
| RL | Radial loop | Loop |
| AS | Simple arch | Arch |
| AT | Tented arch | Arch |
The pattern on each finger feeds the rulebook's lobe and personality weightings - thumbs carry the personality weighting, the other fingers the lobe weightings - and pattern bonuses adjust the scores for whorls, loops and arches.
Ridge counts and the TFRC bands
Beyond the pattern, the software counts the ridges on each finger and totals them into the Total Finger Ridge Count (TFRC). The rulebook reads the TFRC through four bands that describe an overall learning tempo:
| TFRC | Band | What the rulebook says |
|---|---|---|
| 0-60 | Focused | A focused, practical style: learns best with clear goals, short steps and plenty of practice; depth comes from repetition rather than breadth. |
| 61-110 | Balanced | Comfortable with both structure and exploration; able to learn a wide range of subjects with steady effort. |
| 111-160 | Expansive | Absorbs information quickly and enjoys variety; benefits from help to prioritise and finish tasks. |
| 161+ | Very expansive | Highly absorbent and curious about many things at once; needs a calm routine so that energy turns into results. |
Five brain lobes
The ten fingers map onto five brain-lobe regions - prefrontal, frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital - mirrored across the left and right hands. The report shows the relative strength of each lobe pair, which the rulebook interprets as the balance between thinking and planning, movement and coordination, touch and spatial processing, hearing and language, and visual processing.
Eight multiple intelligences
The best-known part of a DMIT report is the multiple-intelligence profile. The software scores all eight: Logical-Mathematical, Linguistic, Visual-Spatial, Bodily-Kinesthetic, Musical, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal and Naturalist. The ranking - rather than any single score - is what the report's stream and career suggestions are built on.
Three learning styles and five quotients
The report identifies the dominant learning style among Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic, so study methods can match the child rather than the other way round. It also gives five quotient indicators: Intelligence (IQ), Emotional (EQ), Creativity (CQ), Adversity (AQ) and Social (SQ). These are rulebook indicators derived from the fingerprint measurements, presented as tendencies to work with - not psychometric test scores.
Streams and careers
For students, the report maps the profile onto six streams: Science (PCM), Science (PCB), Commerce, Humanities / Arts, Design & Fine Arts, and Sports & Performing Arts. It then suggests from twenty-one career fields, with extracurricular activities and an age guide - for example, ages 3-6 focus on play, senses and language with free play, story time, outdoor movement and simple rhymes. Parents reading this alongside a child's other assessments may also find the Children's Handwriting & Psychology software a useful companion, and the Career Report covers astrological career timing for older students and adults.
Honest limits
The report carries its own disclaimer: it is based on dermatoglyphics - the study of fingerprint ridge patterns - and on a widely used DMIT interpretation method. It is guidance to weigh alongside aptitude, education and real-world opportunity, not a diagnosis or a verdict on a child's future. The deterministic rulebook means the same ten prints always produce the same report; nothing is generated or improvised.
Getting the report
A DMIT PDF report costs ₹995 per report, or ₹11,000 for a year of unlimited reports, and it is included with an active Professional plan. The Desktop DMIT edition (₹23,999, lifetime) runs the same rulebook fully offline in an installed browser app, unlocking complete local reports and PDFs. PDFs can be downloaded in English or machine-translated into fourteen other languages, and active plans can add their own practice branding. See the all softwares page for the rest of the catalogue.
