NVIDIA has launched TensorRT Model Connect (TRTMC) in public preview, an open-source tool designed to streamline the conversion of Hugging Face or local checkpoints into native C++ TensorRT inference. This process bypasses the need for an intermediate ONNX export step, directly producing a versioned artifact that can be integrated into C++ services, embedded applications, or robotics stacks. The tool, which was developed with the assistance of OpenAI Codex agents, aims to simplify deployment for applications requiring on-device inference across various industries like robotics, automotive, and medical devices.
