Transponder Keys
Contrary to the flat metal keys which operate mechanically by cutting the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip in their key heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that uses transponder technology, the chip sends low-level signals to a receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start, when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are designed to stop theft of cars which is why a majority of modern cars use them.
In World War II, coded messages were broadcast over radio frequencies to determine whether an aircraft was hostile or friendly.

Proximity Keys
Proximity keys are the most recent keyless entry innovations that are becoming popular in a variety vehicles. They let drivers unlock their car by merely touching the door handle using the key fob, which is kept in their pocket or bag. The key fob then communicates with the car, removing the immobiliser and allowing the engine to begin.
However proximity key systems do have certain disadvantages. If the key fob is lost or damaged it isn't able to start the car. It's expensive to hire a locksmith or dealer to replace it. Batteries also provide power to the fobs, so they'll need to be replaced frequently.
The proximity key technology also has the disadvantage of removing the cause-and-effect cycle we are used to when using physical keys. If you use a conventional key and the lock opens, you are aware that you have the key. You'll have to be within a specified distance to activate the proximity-sensing lock.
Despite their disadvantages the proximity key technology is an excellent invention for drivers who do not want to lock themselves out of their vehicle. If you have a proximity key, it is recommended to always keep a backup key on hand in the event of an emergency. Contact your local Pop A Lock store to get a quote for services and costs.
