Transponder chips were designed to stop car thieves from stealing cars This is the reason they are in use in many modern vehicles.

During World War II, coded messages were transmitted via radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was friendly or hostile. The same concept was later used to create car keys as well, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip keys in 1985 for its Corvette model.
