Abstract
The relationship of a neural network to an optical correlator architecture is discussed and a design concept is formed. This concept design promotes a modular system which can be cascaded to form successive layers of a neural network. The design approach uses the concept of solid optics to mitigate optical alignment problems in field enviroments. Current results on performance is discussed.
