Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau that translates to responder and transmitter) have an electronic chip in their heads. When the key is inserted into a vehicle equipped with transponder tech it sends an unintentional message to a receiver near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to do so, it will cause the engine to turn on. Transponder chips were created to deter car thieves which is why they are in use in many modern cars.

In World War II, coded messages were transmitted via radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was hostile or friendly. The same idea was later applied to car keys and keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in the year 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, a majority of new vehicles come equipped with these keys, and they're also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to include the transponder chip.

Proximity keys

Proximity Keys are the newest technology for keyless entry that is becoming popular in a variety of vehicles. The key fob is put in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob then communicates with the car, disengaging the immobiliser and allowing for the engine to begin.

There are a few disadvantages to proximity key systems, however. If the key fob is lost or damaged the fob isn't usable to start the car. A locksmith or dealership will need to replace it, and this could be costly. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll have to be replaced regularly.

The proximity key technology has the disadvantage of breaking the cause and effect cycle we are familiar with when using physical keys. In the case of a traditional lock, it's when you press the lock and it opens, you know you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys, you'll have to be within a certain distance of the car to activate it.

Despite these limitations they are a great innovation for those who want to avoid locking themselves out their cars. In case of emergency, keep an additional key on hand if you own a proximity-key. If you require a replacement key, call your local Pop-Alock to inquire about prices for replacements and to get a quote for services.

Keyless Entry Systems

These systems sync with back-end programs, allowing landlords to keep track of the entry and exit of tenants. These systems also aid tenants who are in situation of crisis to access the property.

Keyless entry works by transmitting encrypted signals the car's receiver. The receiver receives the signal and unlocks your car or starts it. It also can detect the presence of an individual driver and adjust settings to accommodate their preferences. For example, if the driver is carrying a bag in their hands, it will detect this and then automatically shut the doors.

While the majority of keyless entry systems are incredibly safe, some are vulnerable to attacks. A replay attack, for example, is when the remote control signal from the device is recorded, and then transmitted to a different location at a later time. However, this can be prevented by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm that ensures that every transmission is distinct from the previous ones.

Another benefit of the keyless entry system is that it doesn't require the replacement of locks following each tenant's departure. This is a costly part of the process of transferring units and it is sensible for landlords to save money whenever it is possible. Furthermore when using a keyless entry system all that is needed is resetting the code, which is faster and easier than replacing the entire lock.
