car key fob
Wireless vehicle controller
A car key fob is a small wireless remote that controls vehicle functions—locking, unlocking, opening the trunk, or starting the engine.
Modern fobs use radio signals and may allow keyless entry when carried in a pocket.
The term fob originally meant a pocket for a watch; now it names the device itself.
