The results of operations and cash flows for the period ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

Due to the net losses for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, potentially dilutive securities have been excluded in the calculation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive2. ~~Accordingly,~~Liquidity ~~basic and diluted loss per share are the same within each respective period.~~Matters

The Company’s forecasted cash position is highly dependent upon future sales growth of its 3DHD Vision System. As part of managing its business, the Company frequently forecasts its future cash flow and cash position. Such projections include assumptions regarding fulfillment of existing orders, receipt and fulfillment of future orders and ultimately, the receipt of cash. These forecasts also include assumptions regarding the timing of payments related to existing and future liabilities and inventory procurement. If forecasted orders do not materialize or existing orders are cancelled or reduced, this could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s projected cash position.

3In the event the Company’s current working capital is not adequate to fund its operations and growth and it does not receive any additional capital or financing, the Company may need to seek alternative sources of working capital. ~~INVENTORIES~~ Potential sources of such working capital could include senior debt facilities, new lines of credit or additional sales of our securities. There is a risk that such additional financing may not be available, or may not be available on acceptable terms, and the inability to obtain additional financing or generate sufficient cash from operations could require the Company to reduce or eliminate expenditures for capital equipment, production, or marketing of its products, or to otherwise curtail or discontinue its operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.

~~Details~~The ofCompany ~~our~~may ~~inventory~~need ~~account~~to ~~balances~~raise additional capital to execute its business plan and expand its operations. The Company does not have any arrangements with any banks, financial institutions or investors to provide financing and there can be no assurance that any such arrangement, if required or otherwise sought, would be available on terms deemed to be commercially acceptable and in the Company’s best interests. In January 2012, the Company engaged an investment banking firm to seek financing and/or strategic alternatives for the Company in order to fund its key growth initiatives. These efforts are asongoing. If ~~follows:~~the Company is not able to secure financing and is not generating positive cash flow, the Company will consider other options, including curtailing operations.

In December 2009, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2008 Equity Plan to increase the number of shares available under such plan by 2,800,000 shares. The maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the 2008 Equity Plan is 9,520,000 shares plus such number of shares that are issuable pursuant to awards outstanding under the 2004 Plan as of the effective date and which would have otherwise reverted to the share reserve of the 2004 Plan. The Company has reserved a total of 1,500,000 shares of its common stock for issuance under the Directors’ Plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, no options were granted under the 2008 Equity Plan and 600,000 options were granted under the Directors’ Plan.

~~Overview~~In the event our current working capital is not adequate to fund our operations and growth and we do not receive any additional capital or financing, we may need to seek alternative sources of working capital. Potential sources of such working capital could include senior debt facilities, new lines of credit or additional sales of our securities. There is a risk that such additional financing may not be available, or may not be available on acceptable terms, and the inability to obtain additional financing or generate sufficient cash from operations could require us to reduce or eliminate expenditures for capital equipment, production, or marketing of our products, or to otherwise curtail or discontinue our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

~~Liquidity~~During ~~and~~the ~~Capital~~three ~~Resources~~months ended March 31, 2012, we did not have any financing activities. During the same period in the prior year, sales of common stock generated net cash proceeds of $160,473 from financing activities.

We have financed our operations since inception principally through private sales of equity securities and convertible debt. From January 1, 2004 through September 30, 2011, we raised net proceeds of $17.1 million through the sale of common and preferred stock in private placements and approximately $13.6 million through the issuance of convertible notes and debentures. As of September 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,696,244. We have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations. On May 10, 2011, we closed on agreements with accredited investors to issue an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 9,000,000 shares of common stock, yielding gross proceeds of $3.0 million.

~~Our~~RESULTS ~~forecasted~~OF cash position is highly dependent upon future sales growth, primarily the rate of adoption of our 3DHD Vision System. As part of managing our business, we frequently forecast our future cash flow and cash position. Such projections include assumptions regarding fulfillment of existing orders, receipt and fulfillment of future orders and ultimately the receipt of cash. These forecasts also include assumptions regarding the timing of payments related to existing and future liabilities and inventory procurement. If forecasted orders do not materialize or existing orders are cancelled or reduced, this could have a material adverse impact on our projected cash position.OPERATIONS

~~Net~~Three ~~cash~~Month ~~used~~Period inEnded ~~operating~~March ~~activities for the nine months ended September 30~~31, ~~2011~~2012 Compared ~~and~~with ~~2010 was $2,048,400 and $1,819,745, respectively. This increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to a larger net loss during~~ the ~~nine~~Three ~~months~~Month ~~ended~~Period ~~September~~Ended 30March 31, 2011 ~~partially offset by increased noncash charges for depreciation and stock compensation expense.~~

~~During~~Sales. We had sales of $3,515,879 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2012 compared with $3,122,594 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, ~~net~~an increase ~~cash~~of ~~used~~$393,285 or 13%. The increase in ~~investing~~sales ~~activities~~during the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was ~~$482~~primarily due to increased sales volume of our Original Equipment Manufacturer,~~214~~ or OEM, products. We also experienced an increase in sales of Viking branded 3DHD Vision Systems during the quarter. During the quarter ended March 31, 2012 we sold a total of 21 of our 3DHD Vision Systems compared with ~~$367,889~~17 ~~for~~in the first ~~nine~~quarter ~~months~~ of ~~2010~~2011. ~~This~~ ~~increase~~The ~~primarily~~mix ~~relates~~of tothe total 3DHD systems increased from 7 clinical systems sold in the ~~costs~~first quarter of ~~new~~2011 ~~product~~to ~~demonstration~~17 ~~units~~in ~~and~~the ~~manufacturing~~first ~~test~~quarter ~~equipment~~of 2012.

10In order to properly represent the full complement of our 3DHD product offering to potential customers, the demonstration systems sold to distributors typically include a much broader array of the various components than a standard clinical system. As such, the list price of a demonstration system would be significantly higher than that of a typical clinical system. Because of this, while we typically sell demonstration systems at substantial discounts (meaning lower gross margin), the total sales value is only somewhat lower than that of a clinical system. This pricing strategy explains why our Branded Products sales in the first quarter of 2011 and 2012 are similar, despite different sales mixes of our product lines, as the overall total unit volume of 21 systems sold is the same.

~~During~~Sales ~~the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we generated net cash proceeds~~ of ~~$3,276,573~~our ~~from~~OEM ~~financing~~and ~~activities~~Branded ~~compared~~products ~~with~~were as $2,594,987 for the same period in 2010. This increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the private placement that closed on May 10, 2011, in which we raised gross proceeds of $3,000,000 less stock issuance costs incurred of $111,028. follows:

On January 7, 2010, we entered into an investment agreement with Dutchess Opportunity Fund II, whereby Dutchess committed to purchase from us, from time to time, up to $5,000,000 of our common stock over the course of thirty-six months. We terminated the investment agreement with Dutchess on May 10, 2011. We were able to draw on the facility, as and when we determined appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the investment agreement. In the aggregate, from the time the required registration statement was declared effective on February 12, 2010 through May 10, 2011, we sold 12,546,232 shares of our common stock to Dutchess for total net proceeds of $3,229,774, including $387,601 in proceeds received during 2011.

On May 5, 2011, we entered into a purchase agreement with Clinton Magnolia Master Fund, Ltd. and other accredited investors pursuant to which we agreed to issue shares of our common stock and warrants exercisable to purchase shares of common stock, for an aggregate offering price of $3.0 million (the “Offering”). On May 10, 2011, the Offering closed and we issued and sold to the Investors an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 9,000,000 shares of our common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.25 per share, subject to adjustment, expire five years from May 10, 2011, and are exercisable in whole or in part, at any time prior to expiration. In conjunction with the completed Offering, we agreed to reimburse Clinton Group, Inc. an amount up to $50,000 for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Investors. Through September 30, 2011, we incurred total stock issuance costs of $111,028, which were recorded as a reduction in additional paid in capital.

Concurrent with the Offering, Clinton Magnolia Master Fund, Ltd. reached an agreement with Midsummer Investment Ltd. and purchased all of our common stock and warrants then held by Midsummer. We were not a party to this transaction. At the time of the Offering, Midsummer owned 7,223,457 shares of our common stock, or approximately 12% of the total shares outstanding, and warrants to purchase an additional 5,551,034 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.18 per share.11

~~RESULTS~~Selling OFand ~~OPERATIONS~~Marketing Expense. Selling and marketing expenses were $606,027 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and $478,363 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This represents an increase of $127,664. The increase was due to the hiring of additional sales and marketing personnel during the fourth quarter of 2011 and was also due to increased depreciation expense related to new product demonstration units retained by us.

The increase in sales during both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 was due to increased sales of our Viking branded 3D vision systems, primarily our new 3DHD vision system. Also contributing to the ~~overall increase for the~~ three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2011, ~~was~~representing an increase ~~in sales~~ of ~~our Original Equipment Manufacturer~~$8,706 or ~~OEM, products~~2%. This was primarily due to shipping approximately $343,000 of certain OEM product orders in the third quarter that had been previously delayed during the second quarter of 2011 because of component availability issues related to the natural disaster that occurred in Japan during the first quarter of 2011.

11Other Income and Expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, other income and expense totaled to income of $66 compared with income of $70,178 for the same period in 2011. During the first quarter of 2011, we recorded income of $69,952 related to compensation we received from the grant of a license to a third party to use one of our patents in nonmedical markets and the sale of certain manufacturing assets related to such patent. No such income was recorded during the first quarter of 2012.

Impairment of Long Lived Assets and Intangible Assets with Finite Lives. Property and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives are depreciated or amortized using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives. These assets are assessed for potential impairment when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Conditions that would indicate impairment and trigger an assessment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in the legal factors or business climate that could affect the value of an asset, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator or a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. If, upon assessment, the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value of the asset.

~~Off-Balance~~Revenue ~~Sheet~~Recognition. ~~Arrangements~~Our revenues are derived from the sale of surgical visualization technology products to end users, distributors and original equipment manufacturers. Revenue from the sale of products is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been shipped, the selling price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and when both title and risk of loss transfer to the customer, provided that no significant obligations remain. The significant terms of our sales arrangements typically include upfront payments or credit terms not to exceed 60 days depending upon the creditworthiness of the customer. The arrangements do not include right of return or price concessions and our post shipment obligations typically are limited to standard warranty for product defects.

WeFor dothe ~~not~~sale ~~have~~of ~~any~~products ~~off~~and services as part of a multiple-~~balance~~element ~~sheet~~arrangement, we allocate revenue from multiple-element arrangements ~~that~~to ~~have~~the orelements ~~are~~based ~~reasonably~~on ~~likely~~the torelative fair ~~have~~value aof ~~current~~each orelement. ~~future~~For ~~effect~~sales onof ~~our~~extended ~~financial~~warranties ~~condition,~~with ~~changes~~a inseparate ~~financial~~contract ~~condition~~price, ~~revenues~~we ordefer ~~expenses,~~revenue ~~results~~equal ofto ~~operations,~~the ~~liquidity,~~separately stated ~~capital~~price. ~~expenditures~~Revenue orassociated ~~capital~~with ~~resources~~undelivered ~~that~~elements ~~are~~is ~~material~~deferred toand ~~investors~~recorded when delivery occurs.

~~Use~~Stock Based Compensation. The measurement and recognition of ~~Estimates~~compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards to employees and ~~Critical~~directors ~~Accounting~~are ~~Policies~~based on estimated fair values. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of our stock options at the date of grant. The Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the input of subjective assumptions to calculate the value of stock options. We use historical data among other information to estimate the expected price volatility, the expected annual dividend, the expected option life and the expected forfeiture rate. The grant date estimated fair value is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is generally the option vesting period.

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions, including those related to accounts receivable, inventories, income taxes, long lived asset valuation, revenue recognition, and stock-based compensation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience of operations and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.14

Work-in-process and finished goods are stated at the lower of the accumulated manufacturing costs or market. We reduce the stated value of our inventory for obsolescence or impairment in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value, based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual future demand or market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional reductions in stated value may be required.PROCEDURES

~~Income~~Limitations ~~Taxes. In determining the carrying value of our net deferred tax assets, we must assess the likelihood of sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions, based~~ on ~~estimates and assumptions, to realize~~ the ~~benefit~~Effectiveness of these assets. If these estimates and assumptions change in the future, we may record a reduction in the valuation allowance, resulting in an income tax benefit in our Statements of Operations. Management evaluates the realizability of the deferred tax assets and assesses the valuation allowance quarterly.Controls

13We seek to improve and strengthen our control processes to ensure all of our controls and procedures are adequate and effective. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. No evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company will be detected.
