What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi vehicles prioritize comfort and convenience, which is why the new models we display in our showroom have keyless entry and start. This allows you to get into your car and start driving, while keeping the key fob in your purse or pocket.
This system is controlled by proximity sensors located in the doors, trunks and key fobs. Here are a few things you should know regarding Audi Advanced Key.

A proximity sensor based on sound is also known as a capacitive sensor, makes use of acoustic waves to detect the presence of nearby objects. The sensors use an oscillator to generate the signal, which is transmitted through the air and received by a microphone, which converts it into an audio file. The audio files are evaluated to determine their similarity and proximity. If they are similar enough that the system sends a wake-up signal to the key and will send an ID signal that matches with the vehicle.
The first step toward a more convenient driving environment is proximity detection. The Audi advanced key also has remote start capabilities, which allows you to initiate your vehicle's engine beyond the range of your key's FOB. This is helpful when you are loading groceries into the boot, securing your children in their seats, or packing for a trip with the family.
