Transponder keys (a portmanteau that translates to transmitter and responder) contain an electronic chip embedded in their heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle which uses transponder technology the chip sends an unintentional signal to a receiver near the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips were designed to stop car thieves from stealing cars which is why they are used in most modern automobiles.

Transponder technology was first utilized during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine if aircraft arriving were friendly or hostile. The same concept was later used to create car keys in the form of General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model.

They permit drivers to unlock their cars by simply touching the door handle using the key fob that is in their pocket or bag.

Another drawback of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause-and-effect loop we're familiar with using physical keys. When using a traditional key, when you touch the lock and it opens, you'll know that you have the key. You'll need to be within a certain distance to activate proximity-sensing key.

These systems are synchronized with back-end software, allowing landlords to monitor both exit and entry. These systems are synced to back-end programs and allow landlords to track entry and exit. These systems also help tenants who are in crisis to enter the property.

A keyless entry system operates by sending encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver reads the signal and unlocks or begins your car. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust vehicle settings to accommodate their needs. It will shut the door in the event that, for instance, the driver has bags in his hands.

While the majority of keyless entry systems are extremely secure, some are susceptible to attacks. A replay attack, for example occurs when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded, and then transmitted again at a later time. This can be avoided by incorporating an algorithm into the keyless entry system, which ensures that each transmission is distinct from the previous one.

Keyless entry also offers the benefit that it does not require you to change locks each when a tenant leaves. This is a costly part of the unit turnover process, and it makes sense for landlords to avoid this expense whenever possible. With a keyless system, all you need to do is reset the code. This is much faster and less costly than replacing the lock.
