Transponder Chips
Transponder chips are miniature circuits inside your key that communicate with your car's immobilizer. When the key is switched on, the chip sends an ID 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 doesn't match, the security lamp will turn on and your car won't be able to start.
Transponders aren't invincible. Car thieves have developed ways to bypass anti-theft systems throughout the years. A spare key with an active transponder can help to prevent this.

Smart Keys Keys
Smart keys aren't only an excellent convenience. They also make it harder for thieves to steal your vehicle. Instead of sending out the same frequency signal like traditional key fobs, smart keys emit different encrypted signals every time they unlock the door or remotely open the trunk. A computer in your car is able to detect the changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the appropriate key matches the new signal.
BMW smart keys, for example include a small LCD touchscreen that can perform the same functions of a standard key fob. This includes locking and unlocking as well as keyless entry. However, they also allow users to save their own driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs, as well as instruct your car to park itself. These kinds of features are what can set smart keys apart from conventional keys.
Despite this additional layer of security, there are still ways that smart keys could be compromised. If someone else picks up the low-frequency transmissions between your smart key, and your car when you are away, for instance at a restaurant or gas station, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least, attempt to).
The good news is most smart keys have a backup battery which kicks in when your primary battery fails. Furthermore, a lot of smart key batteries are easy to replace and typically do not require any special tools.
