Hello Abubakar_Haruna,  

Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.   

I would like to let you know that based on ark.intel.com, your unit only supports Ubuntu 16.04 as you can see in the following link:

- https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/125743/intel-movidius-neural-compute-stick.html

However, in order to help you further, please try the following:

1. Install the OpenVINO™ Toolkit. 

- https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/openvino-toolkit/download.html?operatingsystem=window&distributions=webdownload&version=2021%202&options=offline

2. Run the following commands:

cd ~/Downloads 

tar xvf l_openvino_toolkit_<VERSION>.tgz

cd l_openvino_toolkit_<VERSION>

sudo -E ./install_openvino_dependencies.sh 

./install_GUI.sh

3. Configure Neural Compute Stick USB Driver, the USB driver on Linux must be configured for the Intel® Neural Compute Stick. To do this run the following commands in a terminal window:

source ~/intel/openvino/bin/setupvars.sh

cd ~/intel/openvino/install_dependencies

./install_NCS_udev_rules.sh

4. Test the Installation, Plug in the Neural Compute Stick to a USB port on your computer. Run the following commands:

cd ~/intel/openvino/deployment_tools/model_optimizer/install_prerequisites/

./install_prerequisites.sh

cd ~/intel/openvino/deployment_tools/demo

./demo_squeezenet_download_convert_run.sh -d MYRIAD
