DOM dimple lock IC (Pic heavy)
Well, I have never seen more like this and there is no info about them that I could find. I have 2 but only 1 had both operating and control keys so I decided to gut one to see what was in them. The tailpieces are not right for Best locks so I cant use them 
Some pictures are not all that great unfortunately On the bright side there are some wicked security pins in this thing 
Sidebar is only 2 pins
There are also passive side pins and bottom pins which come in at a 45 degrees. Bottom pin dimples are on the left side of the keys. There is also an active element in the 7th chamber that interacts with the ball bearing.
Side dimples
You can see in the 7th chamber is cut across for the active element bar.
And the bar
Side pins. You can see the bottom pins and they are 45 degrees off instead of 90. The side and bottom pins are smaller than the top pins and are offset so that the drivers will not fall in.
Side
Bottom
Here are the bottom pins on the top and the single side pin on the bottom row.
The pins!! Nasty little buggers. All of the master wafers have holes through the middle of them. As you can see there are spools, barrels and a single mushroom pin in there.
On the left is a DOM pin and on the right is a standard Best SFIC pin.
And finally, how the interactive element works with the ball bearing in the key:
