When they are fitted into a car which uses transponder technology the chip transmits low-level signals to a receiver located near the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start provided that it is programmed to it. Transponder chips are designed to protect cars from theft which is why a majority of modern vehicles have them.

During World War II, coded messages were broadcast over radio frequencies in order to determine whether an aircraft was hostile or friendly. The same idea was later applied to car keys in the form of General Motors creating the first transponder chip keys in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they've become commonplace on new cars and are also retrofitted into older models.

However, this isn't completely foolproof and some have found ways to trick the transponder system, such as tutorials and kits that show how to bypass it using electrical relays and wiring.

They let drivers unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle using the key fob, which is kept in their bag or pocket.
