I can clarify this. With OpenCV 3.1, only C++ has support for GPU acceleration (CUDA or OpenCL). This is the version bundled with the 2017 image, and is the version that GRIP-generated code targets.

OpenCV 3.2, released two weeks ago, added Python support for the TAPI, which allows the library to decide to run certain algorithms on the CPU or GPU via OpenCL. Unfortunately, Jetsons (and other Tegra-based Nvidia boards) don't support OpenCL. So you'd still be stuck with C++ if you want GPU acceleration.
