key fob
Think of it like a remote control for your car. You press a button on the fob, and it unlocks the doors or starts the engine for you.
A key fob is a small electronic device that unlocks and starts the car without inserting a physical key. It contains a microcontroller, battery, and radio transmitter that communicates with the vehicle’s immobilizer system.
