Abstract

This paper describes the computational needs of a parallel feature-based range-estimation method developed by NASA Ames. Issues of processing-element performance, load balancing, and data-flow bandwidth are addressed along with a performance review of two architectures on which the feature-based method has been implemented.

Keywords

parallel processing, optical flow
