"Optical device and method for processing a digital optical signal in parallel, and in free space and a device to modify the temporal duration of at least one bit of a time series of N bits.Nsformada in a corresponding space figure. Optical device for processing a digital optical signal in parallel and in free space, said device comprising: (a) input device (60,600) guided propagation of a digital signal light (6) comprising at least one time series (7a) of N bits; (b) device capable of converting the said optical digital signal (6) in a beam of N SIn digital inais optical propagation guided (1,2,3,4).Each including at least one time series (7a) of N bits; (c) device capable of converting the said beam of N digital signals in optical propagation guided (1,2,3,4).Each comprising said at least one time series (7a) of N bits, a bundle of N digital signals in free space optical (11111 2113, and 114); (d) device capable of selecting.In parallel, and free space, a bit pre selected from said at least one time series (7a) of N bits of each of said N optical digital signals (11111 2)113 and 114) to transform the said at least one time series (7a) of N bits into a space (Figure 7D) of said N bits.That carries the same information that previously contained in said at least one time series (7a), said device further understanding and) optical device capable of changing.In parallel, and in free space, at least one bit of said space (Figure 7D) of Diros n bits.The said device being selected among the group consisting of device capable of eliminating at least one bit.Device capable of inserting at least one bit and device capable of changing the form of at least one bit.And (f) an output device of an optical digital signal processed (900) that includes at least a series of N bits.
