Renault key cards are electronic devices that can perform more than just unlock doors and start the engine. They can be used to store data and can even function as an 'auto passport'.

The development and origins of the hands-free card

The hands-free car card is an invention that has revolutionized the way people use their cars. The hands-free card is a small device, no bigger than a standard credit card, that has revolutionized how we drive, unlock the car and get in and out, change the music, and even the temperature. This is the story about how a small device has brought about major changes and how it continues to evolve to meet the needs of the times.

Renault introduced its first hands-free cards in 2001. It was designed to be a more efficient alternative to the traditional key. It was said to offer greater security and comfort when utilized, and also reduce time spent in the shop by allowing technicians 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 vehicle 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 check it on a regular basis to see whether it still has the access code - this can take just 80 milliseconds, or less than the blink of an eye.

However, the system had its shortcomings. Some customers had difficulty to wash their cards. If the card was kept in a trouser pocket, it was easy to accidentally be sat on and cause it to be disabled or locked accidentally.

Renault engineers and designers "reworked" the design to make it watertight. They added an additional layer to protect against unintentional lockouts. The card was equipped with an electronic switch that activated or deactivated the immobiliser if it was near or left a vehicle.

The second generation hands-free card has been added to Laguna II as well as Clio IV. It helped to further improve the quality of Laguna II, which went on to earn a five-star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests. It was also used in the third-generation Clio. The model was bigger and more spacious, and equipped with features that appealed to young drivers.

In order to ensure its customers the highest level of quality, Renault's Douai plant has been working to establish new processes. This work has also enabled craftspeople to look afresh at their abilities. For instance, they can now benefit from a method called full kitting. This means that every technician is equipped with the parts necessary to repair the vehicle they work on.

The minimalist plastic case conceals a sophisticated electronic core. It is programmed to ensure that it constantly 'communicates' with the car with which it is paired. When a driver is near the vehicle, it 'pings' it and emits an indication of verification. If the card responds positively, it instantly unlocks the doors.

The seats can be folded away in a single piece or as an entire unit with the press of a button. The operation is easy, a bit like dominoes being flipped, and the system works even when the headrests are in place. The seats disappear into the floor leaving the space perfect for luggage.

The Espace V is not only innovative in its seating, it also comes with a variety of clever storage solutions. Opposite the front seat passenger, a practical 'Renault Easy Life drawer' turns the glove box into a 12 litre large-capacity storage solution that is stylish and easy to access. The centre console also offers an ample compartment hidden away that houses the hands-free cards as well as mobile.

Despite the fact that smartphones seem to be poised to replace the hands-free cards, Renault has decided to not let it go to the back of the pack. The card accessory is far superior to its smartphone counterpart. It can be used in bad weather. Another advantage is that it is not vulnerable to hacking. It uses a unique code that only the vehicle will be aware of. The hands-free card is used with all Renault models including the ZOE Clio Scenic Kadjar Megane.

Behind the hands-free card's minimalist plastic case is an advanced electronic core. It is programmed to continually  communicate with the car it is paired with. When the car is approached, the card emits a radio signal that contains an access code. If the car recognizes it, it opens the doors. The whole process is less than 80 milliseconds.

The hand-free card also stores information on the car's serial number, registration, the owner, its equipment and mileage. This reduces the time spent in the workshop, should there is a problem. This also allows the mechanic to determine the issue by reading the data on the hands-free card.

However, as with any electronic component that is connected to the internet, the hands-free card can be susceptible to issues and some of them can be extremely serious. If the vehicle isn't driven for a long period of time, it could lose its memory, leading to it no longer being able to unlock the door locks or start the engine. The ignition key can also cease to function. The hand-free card can be reset to correct the issue but it cannot prevent future problems.

The absence of buttons is another common issue with hand-free cards. Many drivers tend to forget to lock or unlock doors by putting the card in their pocket, which can be annoying when they want to leave their car without using their hands. This issue can be addressed by programming a second key on the hands-free cards. However, finding a card that is compatible at a reasonable cost can be difficult.

Renault has been working hard in the years since to improve the hands-free cards both in terms of its appearance as well as the technology inside. The cards are so easy to use that even the youngest drivers do not have any issues using them. The most recent models are more effective at detecting drivers' presence. The aerials are more efficient and can detect the card holder in any part of the car. In addition, they have an initiation sequence that activates when the car detects the card's proximity to the vehicle. The handles for the flush doors are typically hidden in the body of the car - then pop out and the cover for the charging port automatically unlocks.

The card will contact the vehicle when it is close enough. The car then checks the code and if it is in line the car is able to unlock and the doors and boot are shut. The entire process takes 80 milliseconds, which is faster than a blink of an eye. If the card is removed from the area of the car the computer onboard continues to ping the card at regular intervals to see if it remains in the vicinity. If the card fails to respond then the doors and boot are locked once more.

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

While the Renault hands-free card is a convenient and secure method of controlling the car's functions however, it should not be left in the vicinity of children or animals, since they could pose a safety risk by activating the engine or devices such as the electronic windows. The hands-free card should not be used in hot, cold or humid environments as it may damage its circuitry.
