Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Cartesian, Inc. and its subsidiaries ( ) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending January 2, 2016. Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts The FASB ASC 605-35 percentage-of-completion-like methodology involves recognizing revenue using the percentage of services completed, on a current cumulative cost to total cost basis, using a reasonably consistent profit margin over the period. Due to the longer term nature of these projects, developing the estimates of costs often requires significant judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the progress of work completed and ultimate cost of the projects include, but are not limited to, the availability of labor and labor productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, and the impact of delayed performance. If changes occur in delivery, productivity or other factors used in developing the estimates of costs or revenues, the Company revises its cost and revenue estimates, which may result in increases or decreases in revenues and costs, and such revisions are reflected in income in the period in which the facts that give rise to that revision become known. The Company develops, installs and supports customer software in addition to the provision of traditional consulting services. The Company recognizes revenue in connection with its software sales agreements under FASB ASC 985-605, utilizing the percentage of completion-like method described in FASB ASC 605- 35. These agreements include software right-to-use licenses ("RTU's") and related customization and implementation services. Due to the long-term nature of the software implementation and the extensive software customization based on normal customer specific requirements, both the RTU’s and implementation services are treated as a single element for revenue recognition purposes. No such revenues were recognized during the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015 or June 28, 2014. In addition to the professional services related to the customization and implementation of its software, the Company may also provide post-contract support ("PCS") services, including technical support and maintenance services as well as other professional services not essential to the functionality of the software. For those contracts that include PCS service arrangements which are not essential to the functionality of the software solution, the Company separates the FASB ASC 605-35 software services and PCS services utilizing the multiple-element arrangement model prescribed by FASB ASC 605-25, "Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Element Arrangements “Fair Value Measurements” Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

Under the current guidance, market is defined as replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less a normal profit margin. The newly issued guidance eliminates the requirement to determine replacement cost and defines net realizable value as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This new guidance is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, which provides guidance on a customer’s accounting for cloud computing costs. Under the ASU, a customer must determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If so, the customer would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for under current U.S. GAAP. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The ASU does not prescribe how to account for cloud computing arrangements deemed to be service contracts. An arrangement would contain a software license element if both of the following criteria are met: the customer has the contractual right to take possession of the software at any time during the hosting period without significant penalty; and it is feasible for the customer to either run the software on its own hardware or contract with another party unrelated to the vendor to host the software. The ASU is effective for annual periods (and interim periods therein) beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may adopt the guidance retrospectively or prospectively to arrangements entered into, or materially modified, after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“FASB ASU 2014-09”). This standard update clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The standard update intends to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets; and provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. Upon adoption of this standard update, we expect that the allocation and timing of revenue recognition will be impacted. In July 2015 the FASB voted to defer the effective date of this new standard by one year and to permit early adoption beginning as of the original effective date of the new standard. The provisions of FASB ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, and are to be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (“FASB ASU 2014-12”). The standard update resolves the diverse accounting treatment for these share-based payments by requiring that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. The provisions of FASB ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Investments, All Other Investments [Abstract]
Strategic Alliance And Investment [Text Block]	2. Strategic Alliance and Investment by Elutions, Inc. Strategic Alliance and Investment by Elutions, Inc. On February 25, 2014, the Company entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Elutions, a provider of operational business intelligence solutions. Under the Investment Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell shares of common stock to Elutions and to issue stock purchase warrants to Elutions, and the parties agreed that a subsidiary of Elutions would loan funds to a subsidiary of the Company. On March 18, 2014, the Company and Elutions completed the closing (the "Closing") of the transactions contemplated under the Investment Agreement. At the Closing, (a) the Company issued and sold 609,756 3.28 2,000,000 3,268,664 996,544 3.28 3,400,000 3.85 4.85 Promissory Note The Note issued at Closing by the Company's subsidiary, Cartesian Limited, in the aggregate original principal amount of $ 3,268,664 7.825 March 18, 2019 5.50 9.825 Tracking Warrant Under the Tracking Warrant, Elutions may acquire 996,544 3.28 March 18, 2020 5.50 Incentive Warrant Under the Incentive Warrant, Elutions can earn the right to purchase up to 3,400,000 March 18, 2020 0.25 Additional Warrant Provisions Each of the Warrants has economic anti-dilution protection provisions which provide for adjustments to the exercise price and the number of shares of common stock which may be acquired pursuant to the Warrants in the event of issuances of shares of common stock by the Company at a price less than the 30-day volume weighted average trading price at the time of issuance, subject to a number of exceptions. Each of the Warrants also permits Elutions (subject to certain exceptions) to purchase shares in future equity offerings made by the Company on a pro rata basis to all stockholders, with such participation right based upon the maximum number of shares that may be purchased under the Warrant. Registration Rights At Closing, the Company and Elutions entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company has obligations to register for resale the shares of common stock issued under the Investment Agreement and the Warrants. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company granted certain piggyback registration rights to Elutions and agreed to file and maintain a resale shelf registration statement for the benefit of Elutions. The resale shelf registration was filed with the SEC on August 12, 2014 and was declared effective on August 26, 2014. Commercial Relationship The Investment Agreement and the agreements and instruments described above are part of a strategic relationship between the Company and Elutions. As part of the strategic relationship, the parties entered into certain commercial framework documents, including a Market Development Agreement and related Inventory Agreement, on February 25, 2014, and enter into client agreements and bilateral agreements from time to time in the ordinary course of business outlining the terms of the parties' commercial relationship with respect to business development and providing products, solutions and services to clients. The parties have agreed to a term of five years, with automatic two-year renewals unless notice is given, and subject to termination rights in certain events. The Company has agreed to restrictions during the term and for two years thereafter in regard to solutions or services that are substantially similar to or competitive with certain solutions or services of Elutions, and each party has agreed not to hire the other party's employees during the same period. The parties have agreed on a general framework for pursuing, entering into and implementing customer contracts, which includes providing for joint and separate client pursuits and marketing on an initial and ongoing basis, procedures for contracting with clients, procedures for interface between the parties, limited exclusivity requirements of Elutions relating to identified prospects and clients of the Company, intellectual property rights of Elutions to its products and related restrictions, restrictions regarding use of confidential information, limitations on liability of the parties, independent contractor status of the parties, limitations on publicity by the parties, and dispute resolution, including arbitration. The parties also agreed to a framework for certain initial inventory orders and reorders by the Company from Elutions, and related commitments, timing and pricing procedures, when the Company is the prime contracting party under certain client statements of work. With respect to the required initial inventory order, the Company was required to purchase $ 3.0 3.0 Accounting Treatment The fair value of the Note and the Holder Redemption Option were determined using a binomial lattice model. The model requires the following inputs: (i) price of the Company’s common stock; (ii) the expected life of the instrument or derivative; (iii) risk-free interest rate; (iv) estimated dividend yield, and (v) estimated stock volatility. Assumptions used in the calculation require significant management judgment. July 4, 2015 January 3, 2015 Common stock price $ 3.48 $ 4.25 Dividend yield 0.0 % 0.0 % Expected term 1.25 years 1.75 years Risk-free interest rate 1.2 % 1.5 % Estimated stock volatility 45.0 % 45.0 % In addition, the Company determined that the provision of the Note that permits Cartesian Limited to prepay the Note after 18 months if the trading price of the Company's common stock exceeds $ 5.50 The Holder Redemption Option was determined to be an embedded derivative liability that must be bifurcated and recorded as a liability. To determine the fair value of the Holder Redemption Option, management evaluates assumptions that require significant judgment. Changes in certain inputs to the valuation model, including the Company’s period end stock price and stock volatility, can have a significant impact on the estimated fair value. The fair value recorded for the Holder Redemption Option may vary significantly from period to period. This variability may result in the actual liability for a period either above or below the estimates recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, resulting in significant fluctuations in other income (expense) as a result of the corresponding non-cash gain or loss recorded. The Company has classified the Holder Redemption Option as a Level 3 liability and changes in the fair value of the Holder Redemption Option are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The Company reassesses the fair value of this liability on a quarterly basis. Based on that assessment, the Company recognized a decrease of $ 20,000 124,000 105,000 108,000 Because the Company measures the Holder Redemption Option at fair value on a recurring basis transfers, if any, between the levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the change in circumstances that caused the transfer occurred. There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 liabilities during the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015 or during the year ended January 3, 2015. The carrying value of the Note as of July 4, 2015 and January 3, 2015 was $ 3,269,000 3,107,000 3,089,000 The vesting of the Incentive Warrant is contingent on services to be provided by Elutions and the achievement of performance conditions by Elutions. The Incentive Warrant had zero fair value as of January 3, 2015. During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015, Elutions earned 5,508 30,293 9,000 47,000 Quoted prices in Significant other Significant other Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Holder Redemption Option $ 442 - - $ 442 Holder Fair value at January 3, 2015 $ 337 Total unrealized losses 105 Fair value at July 4, 2015 $ 442 As a result of the relative fair values of the instruments and the allocation of proceeds to the instruments and derivative, a debt discount of $1,265,000 was recognized and fully amortized during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014. The discount was recognized as Other Expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income due to the fact that the Note may be called by the holder at any time. In addition, the Company incurred expenses in the amount of $ 120,000 512,000 82,000 345,000 38,000 167,000

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts The FASB ASC 605-35 percentage-of-completion-like methodology involves recognizing revenue using the percentage of services completed, on a current cumulative cost to total cost basis, using a reasonably consistent profit margin over the period. Due to the longer term nature of these projects, developing the estimates of costs often requires significant judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the progress of work completed and ultimate cost of the projects include, but are not limited to, the availability of labor and labor productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, and the impact of delayed performance. If changes occur in delivery, productivity or other factors used in developing the estimates of costs or revenues, the Company revises its cost and revenue estimates, which may result in increases or decreases in revenues and costs, and such revisions are reflected in income in the period in which the facts that give rise to that revision become known. The Company develops, installs and supports customer software in addition to the provision of traditional consulting services. The Company recognizes revenue in connection with its software sales agreements under FASB ASC 985-605, utilizing the percentage of completion-like method described in FASB ASC 605- 35. These agreements include software right-to-use licenses ("RTU's") and related customization and implementation services. Due to the long-term nature of the software implementation and the extensive software customization based on normal customer specific requirements, both the RTU’s and implementation services are treated as a single element for revenue recognition purposes. No such revenues were recognized during the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015 or June 28, 2014. In addition to the professional services related to the customization and implementation of its software, the Company may also provide post-contract support ("PCS") services, including technical support and maintenance services as well as other professional services not essential to the functionality of the software. For those contracts that include PCS service arrangements which are not essential to the functionality of the software solution, the Company separates the FASB ASC 605-35 software services and PCS services utilizing the multiple-element arrangement model prescribed by FASB ASC 605-25, "Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Element Arrangements

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 which requires entities to measure most inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value thereby simplifying the existing guidance which required entities to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Under the current guidance, market is defined as replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less a normal profit margin. The newly issued guidance eliminates the requirement to determine replacement cost and defines net realizable value as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This new guidance is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, which provides guidance on a customer’s accounting for cloud computing costs. Under the ASU, a customer must determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If so, the customer would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for under current U.S. GAAP. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The ASU does not prescribe how to account for cloud computing arrangements deemed to be service contracts. An arrangement would contain a software license element if both of the following criteria are met: the customer has the contractual right to take possession of the software at any time during the hosting period without significant penalty; and it is feasible for the customer to either run the software on its own hardware or contract with another party unrelated to the vendor to host the software. The ASU is effective for annual periods (and interim periods therein) beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may adopt the guidance retrospectively or prospectively to arrangements entered into, or materially modified, after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“FASB ASU 2014-09”). This standard update clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The standard update intends to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets; and provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. Upon adoption of this standard update, we expect that the allocation and timing of revenue recognition will be impacted. In July 2015 the FASB voted to defer the effective date of this new standard by one year and to permit early adoption beginning as of the original effective date of the new standard. The provisions of FASB ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, and are to be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (“FASB ASU 2014-12”). The standard update resolves the diverse accounting treatment for these share-based payments by requiring that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. The provisions of FASB ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements.
