Controlling electronics with Batthead battery

We already know a lot of devices that can be turned on and off with smartphones over Wi-Fi networks. But recently, Canadian experts have developed a different method of controlling the device, which is to create The battery allows you to switch on / off devices using it via the phone.

The Batthead is an AA type rechargeable NiMH battery , which contains a Bluetooth smart chip that allows it to connect to the phone and an accelerometer sensor for motion detection. That means batteries like Batthead will light up automatically when we pick up or the device will automatically shut down when not used for a few minutes.

Not only to be used as a remote power switch, the Smartphone and Batthead batteries also allow the device to comply with all-day power on / off schedules, depending on the distance between the device and the phone. In addition, it also warns the user if they miss the device somewhere.

Currently, the prototype Batthead battery is suitable for devices running iOS and Android operating systems. Batthead developers are seeking funding to produce the battery via the Kickstarter website. Expected, the price of a battery Batthead no acceleration sensor is $ 18.4.
