Background
Clay Hofrock told me that NCS SDK 1.* is compatible with ROS Kinetic. It works with Python 2. (6/16/18) This gets around the problem with NCS SDK 2.* needing Python 3.0 which is not compatible with Kinetic's cv2.so library.
Moved Release v2 Out of the Way
Saved the v2 release in an archive so I could recover it if this path didn't not work.
$ sudo mkdir /opt.archive $ cd /opt $ sudo mv movidius/ ../opt.archive/ $ cd ~/workspace $ mv ncsdk-1.12 ncsdk-1.12-190128
Download Release 1.12.01.01
- NCSDK Release
- v1.12.01.01 download the tar.gz
Install
$ cd ~/workspace $ mv ~/Downloads/ncsdk-1.12.01.01.tar.gz . $ tar xzf ncsdk-1.12.01.01.tar.gz $ cd ncsdk-1.12.01.01/ $ make install $ cat /opt/movidius/version.txt 1.12.01.01
