3 Environment Setup - NCSDK Install
This section is really an install for the Movidius SDK. The exact version may be critical. NCSDK version 1.12.01.01 worked.

DEPRECIATED Notes
From Summer 2018 installs when I was attempting to enable a D200
Opens
- cv2.so issue: The "Import Error ROS python3 opencv" appeared during the installation Movidius examples. See
- Import Stackoverflow Error ROS python3 opencv.
- TB3_Movidius_Neural_Compute_Stick#Problem_Two: The error as it manifested in Movidius examples.
- TB3_Movidius_Neural_Compute_Stick#Fix_Two: How it was unsatisfactorily addressed.
- TB3_Intel_ROS_Object_Analytics#Build_and_Test: This also appeared during the Object Analytics tests.
- TB3_ROS_Intel_Movidius_NCS#cv2_Test: This cv2 does not raise its head during the GoogleNet demo. I wonder if these demos don't use phyton3.
- D400 Prerequisite: I have a D200.
- See Intel ROS Project "Installation Prerequisites."
- See ROS Intel Movidius NCS: "Environment Setup" bullet 6.
- RealSense Version Discrepancies:
- V 1.8.0: TB3 emanual appendix RealSense. It specifies version 1.8.1 in the "Installation" section 21.4.5.1.
- V 1.8.0: TB3_RealSense_Test is what I did.
- V 2.0.2: ROS Intel movidius NCS: "Environment Setup" bullet 6 again.
Prerequisites: (0)
- Don't have a series D400 camera. Going to see how well an SR300 works.
- The D200 the realsense SDK appears to be incompatible with the Intel ROS Project.
- I'll install realsense2 SDK because it supports the SR300 and D400.
- I can move to the D400 if the SR300 won't work.
- See ROS RealSense
I tried using the realsense SDK (not realsense2) and broke my install by forcing an install. Don't follow this path. Give up on the D200.
- 3D camera ROS node Resolve Version Specs See Opens above
- V 1.8.0: TB3_RealSense_Test is what I did.
- STOP TB3 RealSense Samples This is required by TB3_Intel_ROS_Object_Analytics#Extra_Running_Dependencies, TB3_ROS_OpenCL_Caffe#Demo_2, and TB3_ROS_Moving_Object#Launch_1. I does not explicitly say that this package is a requirement. realsense_ros_camera appears to be the key requirement.
Package: ROS Intel Movidius NCS (4)
Environment Setup
- Don't try to install Realsense 1. It messes up the install in this section
- DEPREATED: Install NCSDK v1.12.00.01 Done Summer 2018 TB3 Movidius Newual Compute Stick 1.12. I went to 2.08 after that but the ros Movidius wrapper wasn't upgraded for it. NCSDK 1.12.01.01 worked.
Strategy
Had trouble with Movidius NCSDK 1 so I tried 2. It installed but the wrapper did not. See sim note below. So then went back to NCSDK 1. It worked.
- "Also of note is the ncappzoo/ncapi2_shim project which will allow NCAPI v1 python code to run with NCAPI v2 installed with very little work. See the README.md file in that directory for more information on how to use the shim. Many projects in the ncsdk2 branch make use of this shim as well."
I've experience incompatibility issues using version 1 of Realsense and Movidius drivers. I'm going with version 2 which will probably break App Zoo and require a shim layer to fix. The instructions for Movidius call for the installation of NCSDK v1.12.00. I couldn't install this version and may have broken pip3 items while doing an upgrade. See DEPRECIATED at the bottom. Instead I'm installing v2.08. This will probably cause cv2.so issues with Python3. See Status in the next section.
