A key fob is a device that consists of a computer chip and an aluminum shell. When it comes close to a fob reader, the copper coils on both sides of the fob get energized and transform the radio frequency signal into electricity. The power is then transmitted to the microcomputer within the fob, which then transmits a unique number that is your identity card.

The key fob will then be displayed to the reader, to ensure that the number stored in the memory can be matched. This process, also known as "key-matching", is used by the security system of the vehicle to verify that the owner is authorized. After the keys have been matched, the reader will be allowed to start the vehicle and unlock the doors.
