What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi cars are renowned for their comfort and convenience, which is the reason the latest models in our showroom feature keyless entry and start. This technology lets you get into your car and start driving while keeping the key fob in your pocket or purse.
This system operates through proximity sensors located in the doors and trunks, coupled with a key radio pulse generator in the key fob. Here are a few things you need to know about Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
Audi proximity detection allows you to start and enter your vehicle without having take the key out of your purse or pocket. This authorization and access system works through automatic data exchange between the convenience key and the vehicle that allows you to unlock the doors and trunk and even start the engine with a single press on your key.
A sound-based proximity sensor, also known as a capacitive proximity sensor, uses acoustic waves to detect the presence of objects in close proximity. The sensors generate a signal using an oscillator. The signal is sent into the air by an audio microphone, which converts it into an audio file. The audio files are examined to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. When they are close to each other, the system will send a wake-up message to the key. It will also send an ID signal that matches the vehicle.
Proximity detection is just the first step towards an easier and more enjoyable driving experience. The Audi advanced key has remote start functionality which gives you to start your car from outside the range of your key's FOB. This is helpful for loading groceries into the boot, locking your children in their seats, or packing for an outing with the family.

2. Authentication
When you press your key fob's lock button, the Audi advanced key system communicates with the car's sensors. It sends a message to the car's computer that confirms that the key fob is an authorized key fob. This prevents unauthorised access to the vehicle without a valid key fob.
It also enables drivers to start their cars using the key fob that is in their purse or pocket. Audi's advanced key system makes use of proximity sensor in the trunk lid and doors, as well as the key fob. If the key fob is within roughly five feet of the vehicle, the sensors detect your presence and allow you to unlock the doors. Then, when you pull the door handle or open the trunk, the vehicle recognizes your key and kicks off the engine.
You can also utilize the key fob in order to activate the push-button function of your vehicle. If the key fob is in of your pocket or purse, you can simply press the Start/Stop button in the center console to engage the engine. The car's sensors check the authenticity of the key fob and when it's confirmed, the engine will start.

3. Keyless Entry
Keyless entry is an amazing convenience, especially when you're carrying kids, groceries or gear. You can unlock your vehicle by pressing a button or sensor mounted on the door's handle (some models also have this technology inside the lock). If you're carrying a key fob, it will also send a signal to activate the vehicle's sensors to let it know you're nearby and your finger is at the button. This prevents the use of your vehicle by anyone else by making sure that only you have the right to open the doors.
Another feature that is often included in keyless entry systems is the ability to remote start your car without a key. This is accomplished with sensors that are mounted in the trunk, tailgate and sometimes even inside the doors of the vehicle. These sensors will unlock the doors and start the engine of the vehicle if the fob is within 5 feet. You can then push a button to start your car. This is a great way to keep your car warm and toasty before you head off to work in the morning or when it's cold outside.
Some of the more advanced versions of keyless entry don't require any key fobs at all. These cars can be started and unlocked with a smartphone application. This is a great solution for families or business owners who wish to give their employees easy access to company vehicles. Certain keyless entry systems even remember the driver’s preferred seating position or cabin temperature. This can be a huge time saver when you're driving towards the parking lot.
Some of the most advanced variations of keyless entries systems include the ability to activate the rear hatch with a touch that will automatically close and secure your cargo space by simply tapping your foot.
