The development and origins of the hands-free card

To do this, it emits a radio signal when the driver approaches the car, which is detected by receiver-transmitters located throughout the vehicle. If the card is present, the car recognizes it and sends an access code to it. This unlocks the doors and activates the immobiliser. If the card isn't in range the system will regularly call the card to determine if it still has an access code. It could be as short as 80 milliseconds.

But the system was not without its glitches. Some customers found that washing the cards was a real pain. If the card was left in your trouser pockets it is possible to be seated on it. This could cause it to become deactivated.
