Movidius is good if you want to run a DNN in embedded environments (like the Raspberry Pi). It's like the AI processor in some smartphones (iPhone X, Huawei Mate 10), but packaged separately in a USB stick. As Tetragramm said, it won't train neural networks, but it's small with a low power consumption.
If you want to train AND use DNNs, you don't have space and power limitations (you are using a desktop computer) then a nVidia GPU will be much better. Buy the Movidius when your DNN is trained and tested, and you want to embed it (robot, car, intelligent camera, etc.)
