A proximity sensor based on sound is also known as a capacitive proximity sensor, makes use of acoustic waves to detect the presence of objects in close proximity. The sensors generate an electrical signal by using an oscillator. This signal is transmitted into the air by a microphone which converts it to an audio file. The audio files are then examined to determine their similarity and proximity. When they are close to each other, the system will send a wake-up message to the key. It will also send an ID signal matching the vehicle.
Proximity detection is the beginning of an easier and more enjoyable driving experience.
