This is the story about how a small object has brought about major changes and how it is continually evolving to meet the needs of the times.

The first hands-free card from Renault was introduced in 2001. It was designed to be an improved alternative to the traditional key. It was claimed to provide more comfort and security when utilized, and also less time spent in a shop by allowing technicians check the status of the car remotely.

To do this, it emits a radio signal when the driver approaches the car, which is detected by receiver-transmitters located throughout the vehicle.
