Create a keyframed “speed” channel, then use the area chop to compute the integral of the ‘speed’ which gives you distance, or the accumulated value. To get your desired output which appears to have either zero slope or constant slope, use constant() style keyframes on your input animation.

Hi lucaskywalker
you could try it with a sample and hold method. Try and play with the “filter width” of the “filter chop” to adjust the length of the flat area. The number of pulses define the number of flat areas or put the filter type to gaussian to get a softer corner.
