They also make it more difficult for thieves to take your car. Instead of transmitting the same frequency signal as traditional key fobs, smart keys emit different encrypted signals every time they unlock a door or remotely open the trunk. A computer in your car then recognizes these different frequencies and allows it to start if the right key matches the new signal. BMW smart keys, for example are equipped with a tiny LCD touchscreen that performs the same functions of a standard key fob. This includes locking and unlocking, as well as keyless entry. However, they also allow you to store your own driver settings, stop windows or sunroofs as and instruct your car to park itself. These kinds of features are what make smart keys stand apart from conventional keys. Despite this added layer of security, there are still ways that smart keys can be compromised. If someone who is close to you receives low frequency signals sent between your smart key and your car, they could gain access to your vehicle (or at the very least, attempt to) by spotting these signals even when you're away from your car in restaurants or at a gas station. The good news is that the majority of smart keys come with backup batteries that kick in when the main battery fails. Many smart key batteries can be quickly replaced and don't typically require special tools.
