[ ERROR ] [VPU] Unsupported activation type while running SSDMobilenet using OpenVino Inference Engine

[Moosa__Azmath]

I downloaded tensorflow's `ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco` and converted it to Intermediate Representation file using

`

/opt/intel/computer_vision_sdk_2018.2.300/deployment_tools/model_optimizer$ python3 mo_tf.py --input_model=/work/22_movidus/ncappzoo/tensorflow/custom_tf/ssdmobilenet_frozen_inference_graph.pb --tensorflow_use_custom_operations_config extensions/front/tf/ssd_support.json --output="detection_boxes,detection_scores,num_detections" --data_type FP16

`

It generated xml and bin files.  I then tried to use it in movidius but I am getting this error

/opt/intel/computer_vision_sdk_2018.2.300/deployment_tools/demo$ ../inference_engine/samples/build/intel64/Release/object_detection_demo_ssd_async -d "MYRIAD"  -m ./ir/ssdmobilenet16/ssdmobilenet_frozen_inference_graph.xml -i /dev/video0

I have read that people are able to run this network on the NCS.  But No luck for me so far...  I would be grateful if anyone could help.

Hi Azmath, 

I could reproduce your error. I will investigate with our dev team the problem.

Best,

I had the same issue happend while using coco2018, but using coco2017 generated to .xml is running good.
