The origins and evolution of the hands-free card

The hands-free card is one of those inventions that has revolutionised the way that people use cars. A tiny device - no larger than a credit or debit card - which has revolutionised the method we drive to unlock and enter the car, switch the lighting as well as the music, and even the temperature. This is the story of how a tiny object has brought about great changes and how it is continually evolving to meet the demands of new generations.

Renault launched its first hands-free card in 2001. It was designed to be an improved alternative to the traditional key. It was said to offer more comfort and security when in use, aswell as reducing time spent in the workshop by allowing technicians to check car status 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. If the card is present, the car detects it and transmits an access code to it. This unlocks the doors and activates the immobiliser. If the card is not in range it will periodically ping the card to check whether it still has an access code. It could take as little as milliseconds.

But the system was not without its flaws. Some customers had difficulty to wash the cards. If the card was tucked away in your trouser pocket, it is possible to be seated on it. This can cause it to be deactivated.

Renault engineers and designers and engineers "reworked" the design to make it waterproof. They added a second layer to protect against unintentional lockouts: the card had a microswitch which activated or deactivated the immobiliser if it approached or left a car.

This second generation hands-free card was installed to Laguna II as well as Clio IV. It helped improve the quality of Laguna II which was awarded a 5-star rating in Euro NCAP's crash tests. It was also utilized in the third-generation Clio. This model was larger and more spacious, and was equipped with features that appealed to young drivers.

Renault's Douai factory is working hard to develop new procedures to ensure the best quality for its customers. This has allowed the craftsmen to revisit their skills. They can now benefit, for instance from a process known as full kitting. This means that every technician is equipped with the right set of components that correspond to the particular specification of the vehicle on which they are working.

The minimalist plastic case hides a sophisticated electronic core. It is programmed to ensure that it continuously communicates with the vehicle with which it is paired.  renault trafic key fob  emits a confirmation signal whenever the driver approaches the car. If the card responds positively it will unlock the door instantly.

The seats can also be folded away in a single piece or as an entire unit, using a single button press. The operation is easy and a little like dominoes that tip, and the system works even when the headrests are in their place. The seats then disappear into the floor, leaving the space for transferring luggage.

The Espace V is not only innovative in its seating, but also features a range of clever storage solutions. A practical Renault Easy Life drawer transforms the glovebox opposite the front seat into a huge storage space with 12 litres of storage that is both attractive and easy to access. The center console also features an enormous compartment that houses the hands-free cards as well as a mobile.

Despite the fact that smartphones appear to be poised to replace the hands-free cards, Renault has decided not to let it fade into history. The card accessory is superior to its smartphone counterpart. It can, for instance, be used even in bad weather conditions. It is also less susceptible to hacking. It uses a unique code that only the vehicle will recognize. The hands-free card is used with all Renault models, including the ZOE Clio Scenic Kadjar Megane.

The hands-free card that is included in the Laguna II

This small object that is less than a credit card's size, has revolutionised how we use cars. The hands-free card has become an essential symbol of Renault and is among the most modern products of the moment.

The minimalist plastic case hides a sophisticated electronic core. It is programmed so that it continuously communicates with the vehicle with which it is linked. The card emits an access code whenever the car is within. If the car recognises it, it opens the doors. The entire process takes less than eight milliseconds.

The cards that are free of charge also contain information about the serial number, registration, owner, the equipment, and the mileage of the car. This reduces the time spent in the workshop, if there is a problem. It also means that the mechanic is able to detect the issue by reviewing the information on the hands-free card.

Hands-free cards are susceptible to problems, and some of these can be very serious. If the vehicle isn't driven for a prolonged period of time, the card could lose its memory, which results in it being unable to open the door or start the engine. The ignition key may also cease to function. The hand-free card can be reset to correct the issue but it cannot stop future malfunctions.

Another common issue with the hands-free card is a absence of buttons. It is typical for drivers to lock or unlock their doors in error by putting their card in their pockets. This can be extremely irritating when they try to leave their vehicle without using their hands. It is possible to fix this issue by creating a second button on the hands-free card, but it isn't easy to locate a compatible card at a reasonable cost.

Clio's hands-free credit card

The aerials are more efficient and can identify the card holder anywhere in the vicinity of the vehicle. They also have a welcome routine that activates when the car detects the card approaching. The handles on the flush doors - normally concealed within the car body will then open and the cover for the charging port is automatically unlocked.

The card will contact the vehicle when it is close enough. The car then examines the code and, if it matches the car unlocks and the doors and boot close. All of this happens in 80 milliseconds, which is faster than a blink of an eye. If the card is removed from the vicinity of the car the computer onboard continues to ping the card at regular intervals to see whether it is still within the vicinity. If the card doesn't respond then the doors and boot are locked again.

Many other functions can also be triggered by the presence of the hands-free card, such as locking the doors, triggering the horn and lights, and lower the windows. The card also keeps information such as the serial number of the vehicle, registration, details of the owner, the vehicle's equipment and mileage, which makes it sort of a 'car passport'.
