Transponder Chips
Transponder chips are miniature circuits inside your key that communicate with the car's immobilizer. When you turn the key into the ignition, the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If the ID code matches the one in the BCM's memory, the immobilizer is deactivated and the engine starts. If the ID code does not match, the security lamp will turn on and your car won't be able to start.

Smart Keys
Smart keys aren't only a convenient feature. They also make it harder for thieves to get into your car. Smart keys don't transmit the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead, they send out different encrypted messages every when they open doors or remotely unlock the trunk. The computer in your car recognizes the changes in frequency and will only allow it to start when the key that you want to use matches.
BMW smart keys, for instance they have a tiny LCD touchscreen that performs the similar functions of a standard key fob, such as locking and unlocking as well as keyless entry. However, they also allow users to save their own driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs as well and instruct your car to park itself. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.
Smart keys aren't completely secure. If someone near you detects the low-frequency transmissions between your smart keys and your vehicle, even when you are away, like in a restaurant or a gas station, they could gain access to your car (or at least attempt to).
The good news is that most smart keys come with battery backups that will be activated when the main battery fails. Additionally, many smart keys' batteries are simple to replace and don't require any tools.
