I have no idea what it's from, but I do find it very interesting. The non-stud
end looks like it's the same as a notched 2L axle, which means that there
are all kinds of places that it could securely fit as either a decorative or
functional piece.
As others, never see that before, still the shape and the notch in an axle shape
suggest to me it could be part of some NXT/Mindstorm sensor end, toggle switch,
a toggle for a light brick or toggle/release switch of a windup motor.
I have checked all this kind of parts known in BL without any luck, my closest
match is the button on the left side of the Code Pilot (but the red button does
not have Lego logo on it)

Thanks for the effort. I also thought that it could be a button from some LEGO
clock or watch. But as I see those buttons don't have LEGO name molded there.
Did anybody see something like this? Anybody knows anything about it?
All I can say is that I really would like a part like that! I can already
think of some situations I could have solved easily with that. Hopefully some
sleuth can sort this out for us. Please keep us updated.
Did anybody see something like this? Anybody knows anything about it?
So, no other numbers or marks anywhere on it?
Like others, I can see countless problems to solve with this but like others
before me, steer clear of Bionicles...looks suspiciously like Bionicle instead
of our endeared Technic

Speaking of Bionicle, you could have one of those common Technic ball-joint
balls (32474 or 53585) with just a stud sticking out the side when combined with
such a piece. That's got me brainstorming...

Okayyyyy- now I see it! You may be right!
Sort of reminds me of this thing someone 3D printed:
Of course you wouldn't want to get THAT stuck in a 32474! (I occasionally
run into a similar 'homemade solution' when I find 1L axle stubs snapped
off of Bionicle detail parts in used LEGO batches. I had to drill a tiny center
hole and drive a fine screw into the bit to remove it on a couple occasions.)
