A key fob is an electronic device made up of a computer chip as well as a metal shell. When the fob is placed near an electronic reader the copper coils on both sides of it are energized and transform the radio frequency signal to electricity. The power is then transmitted to the microcomputer in the fob. It transmits a unique number that serves as your identity credential.

The key fob will be shown to the reader so that the key fob's 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. Once the keys are matched then the reader will be able to start the car and open the doors.
