smart key

Wireless car opener

A smart key is a wireless electronic fob that communicates with a vehicle, allowing the driver to unlock doors and start the engine without physically inserting a key.

The car detects the smart key's proximity: As long as the smart key is in your pocket, you can just push the button to start.

Also called a key fob or keyless entry remote.
