Going Concern Matters [Abstract]
Going Concern [Text Block]	Note L – Going Concern Matters The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the financial statements, we incurred losses from operations in the years of 2011 and 2010 of $3.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The continuing losses and default of debt payments raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern. We are currently working with a number of large customers who are using our technologies to evaluate their microdisplay production or are evaluating our technology for the inspection of LCD displays and components. We expect that additional sales orders will be placed by these customers throughout 2012 and into 2013 provided that markets for these products continue to grow and the customers continue to have interest in our technology-assisted inspection systems. Ultimately, our ability to continue as a going concern will be dependent on these large companies getting their emerging display technology products into high volume production and placing sales orders with us for inspection products to support that production. However, there can be no assurance that we will be succesful in securing sales orders sufficient to continue operating as a going concern. From November 2006 through March 31, 2012, we have used $10,133,510 of Class 2 and Class 3 Notes to fund operations. $4,953,632 are Class 3 Notes, all of which are in default as of March 31, 2012. $5,179,8780 are Class 2 Notes, $1,234,072 of which are in default as of March 31, 2012. We continue to need need to negotiate forbearance or a cure of the defaults and continue to need to raise additional funds for operations in the first six months of 2012. Certain note holders have continued to fund operations while their notes are in default, but the limited basis of the funding is causing us to fall behind with vendors not essential to our daily operations or production. We have $323,221 of over 90 days in accounts payable as of April 6, 2012. In the months of October and November 2011, we received $2,300,000 in new inspection system orders that we expect to deliver in the first six months of 2012. Provided the equipment performs as expected, management believes there will be repeat orders and additional opportunities with this customer for a similar volume of orders for the second half of 2012. We will need to negotiate with the Note Holders to allow us to use substantially all of the proceeds from sales orders over the next 12 months in order to ramp up production and support for the new sales orders. We have already raised approximately $420,000 in operating capital in the first quarter and expect to continue to need to raise additional funds in the second and third quarters. If the anticipated orders do not materialize, we will need to raise up to $2,500,000 to fund operations through the first quarter of 2013 and continue to defer interest and principle payments on existing debt to continue to fund operations. In anticipation of the potential need, on November 9, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized an increase in the debt ceiling to $11,000,000 to assure the Company has sufficient operating capital available. These levels of required capital may be beyond the means of existing noteholders and would cause us to seek new investors. We have begun discussions with certain note holders regarding restructuring of current positions to be able to attract new investors.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the financial statements, we incurred losses from operations in the years of 2011 and 2010 of $3.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively.
