On the move without car keys

Soon, this will be possible thanks to the secure perfectly keyless system. A smartphone takes the place of the analog key and, working in conjunction with the vehicle, performs the locking and unlocking processes reliably and with precision.

Automatic locking

When the driver gets out, the vehicle independently starts to search for the key. If the smartphone leaves the vehicle and the locking zone, it automatically locks itself. The driver is notified by a confirmation message on their smartphone.

Individualized key management

Perfectly keyless offers the driver greater convenience and flexibility. An app allows the vehicle owner to grant other users access to their vehicle remotely. An individual authorization profile can be set up for every user with time and location limits.

Digital key transfer

An additional key is sent via cloud. Each user receives their own personal key. This means that the vehicle owner can allow others to use their vehicle anywhere.

Receiving the digital key

The selected user receives a personal digital key. All they have to do now is confirm it on their smartphone.

Perfectly keyless – precise wireless localization and secure key management

This is how the keyless vehicle access system works.

Perfectly keyless is an keyless vehicle access system. Both passive vehicle access and start are controlled by a digital key on a mobile phone in combination with a precise localization of the device.

Also, perfectly keyless offers the driver greater convenience and flexibility. An app allows the vehicle owner to grnt other users access to their vehicle. For this, an additional key is sent by cloud.

Automatic unlocking

The system's automatic opening function is very precise: the smartphone only links up with the system when it is within the communication range of the vehicle. As the smartphone approaches the vehicle and enters the unlocking zone, the vehicle is unlocked automatically.

Customized settings

As soon as the vehicle is automatically unlocked, customized settings, such as mirror and seat positions or the favorite radio station, are also triggered.

Passive start

Passive start is another function to make your life easier: When the start-stop button is pressed, a search for the digital key is initiated inside the vehicle. If the search is successful, the engine will start.

Automatic locking

When the driver gets out, the vehicle independently searches for the key. If the smartphone is removed from the vehicle and the locking zone, the vehicle is locked automatically. A message on the smartphone screen notifies the driver.

Key management

Perfectly keyless offers more comfort and flexibility to the driver. The vehicle owner can grant other users access to the vehicle using an app. An additional key is then sent over the cloud. Each user receives their own personal key. Thus, the driver can easily allow others to use the vehicle wherever they are.

Fleetmanagement

The perfectly keyless system also works for entire vehicle fleets. Users can be granted and blocked access digitally, subject to geographical and time limits if so desired. This allows fleet operators such as car hire companies, providers of car-sharing services, and businesses in general to manage their vehicle keys digitally, using an app and the cloud.

Bosch wants to replace your car keys with a smartphone and an app

Questions and answers

For Perfectly keyless to work, what hardware does my car need to have?

Automakers will have to install proximity sensors and a control unit as fixed features in their vehicles. These sensors measure how far away the driver’s smartphone is from the car. They also register what direction the driver is approaching from.

The control unit administers the digital security key and ensures that smartphone, cloud, and vehicle systems communicate smoothly.

What if a user loses their smartphone?

If the smartphone is lost, and the app with it, the digital key can be deactivated online. This blocks access to the vehicle, both for authorized persons and third parties. A new smartphone can be connected with the vehicle at any time,

and a new unique security key generated. In the interim period, the conventional vehicle key will work as usual.

How does Perfectly keyless differ from the keyless entry systems already in the market?

Today’s keyless entry systems still feature a physical key fitted with a chip, which drivers still have with them in their pocket or handbag. The first app-based digital access systems are now being used by sharing services to cut out the complicated task of keeping track of car keys. To get in or to drive off, users request access by smartphone before each journey.

With Perfectly keyless, simply having a smartphone in one’s pocket is enough. The vehicle access system automatically unlocks the vehicle as soon as the driver and smartphone come close. There is no need for a key, chipcard, or swipe of the smartphone touchscreen.

Which mobile operating systems does Perfectly keyless work with?

The system supports devices using any of the common operating systems.
