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

Smart Keys Keys
Smart keys aren't just a great convenience but also make it difficult for car thieves to take your vehicle. Instead of broadcasting the same frequency like traditional keys, smart keys emit different encrypted signals every when they unlock the door or remotely open the trunk. A computer in your car is able to detect these changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the appropriate key matches the latest signal.
A BMW smart key, for example, has a small LCD color touchscreen on it that performs the usual functions of a regular key fob (locking in, unlocking and keyless start) however, it also gives you the ability to store individual driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs, as well as command your car to self-park from the key. These kinds of features help to set smart keys apart from their traditional counterparts.
Smart keys aren't 100% secure. If someone who is close to you receives low frequency signals transmitted between your smart keys and your vehicle, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least attempt to) by detecting these signals when you're away from your car, such as at the gas station or in a restaurant.
The positive side is that many smart keys have batteries that can kick in should the main battery fail. Furthermore, a lot of smart key batteries are easy to replace and generally don't require any special tools.
