  • Publication number: 20200010048
    Abstract: A vehicle may include: a conductive coil; and an authenticator configured to be turned on in response to receiving a current and to request an encryption key from a remote control apparatus. An induction current may be induced in the coil when a magnetic body approaches the coil, and the authenticator may be further configured to be activated in response to receiving the induction current from the coil.
