Abstract
Provided are an optical device which is capable of optically implementing an activation function of an artificial neural network and an optical neural network apparatus which includes the optical device. The optical device may include: a beam splitter splitting incident light into first light and second light; an image sensor disposed to sense the first light; an optical shutter configured to transmit or block the second light; and a controller controlling operations of the optical shutter, based on an intensity of the first light measured by the image sensor.
