Imagen has not raised any venture capital either; indeed, Lipson claims to have spurned offers because, she says, working as a lone wolf, Imagen is free to develop its technology at its own pace and in several markets simultaneously. The company's only funding other than the M.I.T. prize and fees from Teradyne has been $100,000 from Alex d'Arbeloff, who until earlier this year was chairman of M.I.T. Corp., which oversees...
