For the three-month periods ending March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded depreciation expense totaling $1,335 and $0, respectively.
Intangible Assets, Finite-Lived, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Other Assets

Other Assets consists of payments made to purchase patents related to our efforts in commercializing the ISAN system.

For the three-month periods ending March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded amortization expense totaling $0 and $2,730, respectively.

We review intangible assets using our best estimates based on reasonable assumptions and projections. An impairment loss to write such assets down to their estimated fair values is necessary if the carrying values of the assets exceed their related undiscounted expected future cash flows. We also determine impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, uncollectible accounts receivable, asset depreciation and amortization, and taxes, among others.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]
Share-based Payments

All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.

For stock issued to consultants and other non-employees for services, we record the expense based on the fair market value of the securities as of the date of the stock issuance. The issuance of stock warrants or options to non-employees are valued at the time of issuance utilizing the Black Scholes calculation and the amount is charged to expense.

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded an aggregate $40,756 and $19,400 in selling general and administrative expense related to options issued pursuant to the 2007 Plan.

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded an aggregate $19,000 and $19,000 in selling general and administrative expense related to options issued outside of the 2007 Plan.
Non-Cash Transactions [Policy Text Block]
Non-Cash Transactions

 We have established a policy relative to the methodology to determine the value assigned to each intangible we acquire, and/or services or products received for non-cash consideration of our common stock. The value is based on the market price of our common stock issued as consideration, at the date of the agreement of each transaction or when the service is rendered or product is received.

 The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of our financial statements.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized as risk and title to products transfers to the customer (which generally occurs at the time shipment is made), the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We also may generate revenues from royalties and license fees from our intellectual property. Licensees typically pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. License fees are recognized over the estimated period of future benefit to the average licensee.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We report basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) for common and common share equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants and stock options on the Company’s net loss.
