Afterwards, appropriate statistical tools will be used for significant information that can relate personality and health index. This paper focus on contribution in the field of color image processing of palmistry with the help of advanced RGB color image processing techniques in order to study the personality index of a subject. In this work, samples of palm images are digitally captured under standard and control environment. Other characteristic parameters representing the subject´s personality are also taken. Statistical tools are applied to the quantified color component indices from the processed image for significant findings that can relate color of palm with respect to the subject´s character.
