Electronic keySmart key — Relisted for further input. Jafeluv (talk) 14:43, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

First Listing:

No evidence presented that it is more common, and the proposed capitalisation is certainly incorrect. Knepflerle (talk) 04:17, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here is 3 links to benchmarking reports of different manufacturers systems, each is from a different manufacturer and all three refer to the system as smart key. http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G1-133512772.html http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/302112/vehicle_smart_key_system_evaluation_volvo_s40.pdf http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-135097170.html

even if this is not the new title of the page the current title is misleading. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scottleonard101 (talkcontribs) 11:02, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I was of the impression that Smart Key was a trademark brandname electronic key. I am certainly not comfortable with how close it is to SmartKey and SmartKeys. In the very least, capitalization (WP:CAPS) should be removed given the intent is to to refer to a proper name.--Labattblueboy (talk) 21:19, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I do agree with the capitalisation issue, but "Smart key" is not a trademarked brand name, it is used by several manufacturers (or variations like "smart key system") because this type of system it is generally referred to as "Smart key" 17:44, 3 February 2010 User:Scottleonard101

RSA ≠ Rivest-Shamir-Adleman encryption!

[edit]

I find the use of RSA here confusing, it reminds me of the RSA (algorithm). --Test35965 (talk) 05:45, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

C4 Corvette 1993 Keyless Entry Remote Key Fob

[edit]

Hey everyone, I just wanted to point out that the S class is NOT the first vehicle to introduce this to the market. General Motors made the introduction with the 1993 C4.

Here is a link to see where you can buy the fob. Note it states 1993, thus, introduced BEFORE the s class in 1998. https://www.corvettemods.com/C4-Corvette-1993-1996-Keyless-Entry-Remote-Key-Fob_p_14758.html

Different systems. The C4 Vette had passive keyless entry, yes, but the ignition still used a conventional metal key. 108.200.234.93 (talk) 07:57, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Conspiracy theory

[edit]

What if I told you that keyless entry as it exists today was invented by a team of engineers at Howard University in 2004, who did their senior project with General Motors and never received recognition for their numerous inventions including hybrid technology, electronic assist and turbo-electric regenergation? The fob key (people eventually started calling it a key fob) is named after the fob pocket, which is the small pocket on the inside of your jeans pocket that the key was originally designed to fit into. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2803:1500:1200:49D4:FDD2:E8D6:4BD2:8C22 (talk) 00:22, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
