Transponder chips are tiny circuits that are embedded into your key and communicate with the immobilizer. When the key is switched on, the chip transmits a code to the Body Control Module (BCM) of the vehicle. If the ID code matches the one stored in the BCM's memory then the immobilizer will be disabled and the engine will start. If the ID code does not match, the security light will be on and the vehicle won't start.

Instead of sending out the same frequency signal similar to traditional key fobs smart keys send out different encrypted signals every when they unlock doors remotely or open the trunk. A computer in your car is able to detect these changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the correct key matches the latest signal.
BMW smart keys, for instance are equipped with a tiny LCD touchscreen that can perform the same functions as a standard key fob, including locking and unlocking as well as keyless entry. They also allow you to save your personal driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs, as well and tell your car how to park itself. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.
Smart keys aren't entirely secure. If someone in your vicinity receives the low frequency transmissions transmitted between your smart keys and your vehicle or vehicle, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least attempt to) by picking up on these signals even when you're away from your vehicle, such as at the gas station or in a restaurant.
The good news is that most smart keys come with battery backups that will begin to function when the main battery is dead. Additionally, many smart keys' batteries are simple to replace and typically don't require any special tools.
