Get Started with the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick
Requirements:
System running Ubuntu 16.04, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B or Ubuntu VirtualBox instance
Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick
Internet connection to download and install the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute SDK
Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick
Internet connection to download and install the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute SDK
| Note | The Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute SDK only supports the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick. The OpenVINO™ Toolkit supports both the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick and the Intel® Neural Compute Stick 2. See the Getting Started Guide for the Intel® NCS 2. |
Install the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute SDK:
Run the following commands on a terminal window:
mkdir -p ~/workspace
cd ~/workspace
git clone -b ncsdk2 https://github.com/movidius/ncsdk
cd ncsdk
make install
mkdir -p ~/workspace
cd ~/workspace
git clone -b ncsdk2 https://github.com/movidius/ncsdk
cd ncsdk
make install
Test installation by running the built-in examples:
Plug the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick to your system's USB port and run these commands on a new terminal window:
cd ~/workspace/ncsdk
make examples
cd ~/workspace/ncsdk
make examples
