Mangaluru, Mar 20, 2016: The students of Sahyadri College of Engineering and Management, have designed a market-ready product named Xenon SmartPlug, an app enabled smart home automation device. Prithviraj Shetty, Fenil Mehta, Rohan Shetty and Lenson Saldanha are the students who have designed this product. The Xenon SmartPlug is marketed through their own start-up Axndx Technologies Pvt Ltd.

The Xenon SmartPlug is a bluetooth powered smart device used to wirelessly control electronic appliances. It is designed with scheduled switching of devices after they have finished their task. "The SmartPlug comes with a companion android app (for Android 4.3+ only) which can be downloaded from the Google Play Store for free. This app turns your phone into a wireless controller. The SmartPlug switches off the charger automatically once the mobile is charged fully. One can also toggle the state of the device just by shaking the phone and schedule the switch on or off devices using the countdown timer in the app," said the students.

The students are currently working on a higher version of the SmartPlug with more features to suit the industrial needs. One can know more about the product on www.-myxenon.
