Zipcar have invented a brand new way to unlock the car. They are doing well for themselves as this is an idea unique to them at this moment in time. This company, like many others have actually been keeping their eyes on the market and have realised that the iPhone is very popular so they have come up with a brand new idea for renting one of their cars.

With over 400 of their cars already installed with the new product it is only a matter of time before all of their electronic opening cars are fitted with the same piece of technology. The system that has been created can actually tell the difference between each and every iPhone so you wont have any thieves attempting to steal your ride. The signal from the phone is picked up by a tiny system placed on the inside of the car itself. For security reasons when you rent the car and get inside it for the very first time there is a security card that must be swiped so that it will pick you up as the individual user for that car.

This invention sounds like it is coming straight from a famous spy movie than anything else. Of course you are not going to be able to do this with used cars yet because this is happening only at Zipcar. However the day is sure to arrive where everyone is unlocking their new cars in this way. Perhaps in the future when you go to buy an Audi or perhaps when you buy a Honda

So what is next for the iPhone and car? Perhaps you will be able to let the phone steer your car for you or do it via remote controlled access like in the Bond movies or perhaps this is as far as it is going to go. Of course technology itself is ever changing and it is almost certain to say that we can hope to see a lot more of these types of inventions.
