Abstract
An apparatus includes a processing node of a distributed computing platform. The processing node communicates with other processing nodes over one or more networks. The processing node may receive frames of point clouds at a processing node of a distributed computing platform, determine a subset of the frames as key frames based at least in part on distances travelled between captures of the respective frames, and allocate tasks of processing the key frames to processing subnodes based at least in part on estimated processing demands of the key frames and processing capabilities of each of the processing subnodes.
