[SOLVED] Openvino Installation on Realsense Robotics Kit fails for AI Core X Myriad Step

tjirsch

I received my robotics kit without a preinstalled ubuntu image. The installation doc given with the AI Core X product (https://up-shop.org/featured/261-up-ai-core-x.html) does not work, because the 2018 R5 download of the Openvino Toolkit is no longer available.
All Openvino Toolkit installations from 2019 fail within the sidestep: http://docs.openvinotoolkit.org/latest/_docs_install_guides_installing_openvino_linux_ivad_vpu.html
when running sudo ./setup.sh make fails and no drivers get compiled.

What am I to do ?

NB:
I tried to create this in Starter Kits->Intel Realsense Robotics Development Kit category but that wsa not selectable.

I have installed the latest 2019 released again.
running ./demo_squeezenet_download_convert_run.sh -d MYRIAD
produces:

My AI Core X is now working. I installed Intel Openvino Distribution 2019 R2.01 and also did the steps for the "Steps for Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick and Intel® Neural Compute Stick 2".
After that, all demos worked with the -d MYRIAD option.
I thought that the AI Core X module could not be a usb device because of the mpcie Connector, so I never followed the steps in the above section. This could be clarified in the documentation.
I did not try to use the HDDL option / installation.

Thanks again for the support !
