What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi prioritizes comfort and convenience. That's why all new models that we have in our showroom include keyless entry and starting. This allows you to enter your car and begin driving, all while keeping your key fob in your pocket or purse.
This system works through proximity sensors in the doors and trunks coupled with a key radio pulse generator inside the key fob. Here are some things you should be aware of Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
Audi proximity detection lets you to begin and enter your car without having to take the key out of your pocket or purse. This authorization and access system works by automating data exchange between the convenience key and your car that allows you to unlock the doors and trunk and even start the engine with just a click on your key.
A proximity sensor that is based on sound is also known as a capacitive proximity sensor, employs acoustic waves in order to detect the presence of objects in close proximity. The sensors generate an oscillator-generated signal. The signal is sent into the air by an audio microphone, which converts it to an audio file. The audio files are evaluated to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. If they are close enough that the system sends an alert signal to the key and send an ID signal that is in line with the vehicle.
The first step to a more pleasant driving experience is proximity detection. The Audi advanced key also comes with remote start capabilities that lets you start your car's engine without leaving the range of your key FOB. This is useful when you are loading groceries into the boot, locking your children in their seats or packing for an outing with the family.

2. Authentication
When you press the key fob's lock button the Audi advanced key system communicates with the car's sensors. This sends a code to the car's computer that confirms that the key fob is an authorized key fob. This security measure prevents any entry into the vehicle without the authentic key fob.
The key fob can be used to also start the car from the pocket or purse. Audi's innovative key system utilizes proximity sensors inside the trunk lid, doors and 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. When you open the trunk, or use the door handle the car recognizes the key and starts the motor.
You can also utilize your key fob to activate the start-up feature of your vehicle's push button. If the key fob is inside of your pocket or purse you can press the Start/Stop button in the center console to engage the engine. The car's sensors will verify the authenticity of the key fob and begin the engine when they have confirmed it.

This makes it incredibly convenient when your hands are full or you're wearing gloves, like when you're carrying your groceries or children in the car.

You can then press the button to start your car. This is a great way to get your car warm and toasty before you head off to work in the morning or when it's cold outside.

They can be locked and reopened using a smartphone app. This is a great solution for business owners and families who wish to provide their employees with an easy method of using company vehicles. Some keyless entry systems will even remember the driver's preferred seat position and cabin temperature. This could save you lots of time when you go to a parking spot.
