Remote Fobs

The receiver interprets the code and signals what actions to take.

Modern car key fobs connect to the computer onboard of the vehicle via radio frequency identification technology (RFID). The computer reads the signal from the key fob, looking for an exact code that is compatible with a preprogrammed. Once the code is matched it opens the door or begins the engine.

Other kinds of vehicles also use the technology, including planes and trucks, buses/coaches, and tanks. Numerous car manufacturers have integrated the RFID system into their vehicles. This makes it easier to start the engine or open doors with just a push of a button.
