Installs the MIT RACECAR software on the MIT configuration of RACECAR/J

This software stack runs on the Jetson TX1 and Jetson TX2 running L4T 28.1. Use JetPack 3.1 to install L4T 28.1, and at a minimum:

CUDA 8.0
cuDNN 6.0
OpenCV4Tegra 2.4.13

The installation script does the following:

L4T 28.1 does not have a cdc-acm driver. The script installs a pre-built cdc-acm driver. The driver expects a stock kernel (4.4.38-tegra)
Because the electronic speed controller and the IMU both report as ttyACM, a udev rule is installed which names them as vesc and imu respectively.
ROS is configured and rosbase is installed
One of the dependencies is missing in the package specifications, so ros-kinetic-opencv3 is installed.
The MIT RACECAR packages are installed, which includes the ZED v2.2.x ROS wrapper.
