What is Transponder Technology?
Introduction of a Transponder Immobilization system, which is built in to all cars made in Europe, USA and Asia as anti-theft security system was a major breakthrough. Cars on Indian roads are yet to find them with the exception of few luxury class vehicles. The system involves a microchip, which is a miniature transmitter and receiver. There is an engine management system inside the dashboard that can recognize the signals transmitted from the microchip. If the correct signals are not detected, the engine will not start.
