　　Modern car theft methods: from tools to technology

　　Unlike the traditional car theft methods of prying car doors and breaking car windows by force in the past, today's thieves prefer to use high-tech methods to complete the theft. For example, the theft method using radio jammers is rapidly gaining popularity. drone jammer This device blocks the radio communication between the car key and the car by transmitting interference signals, resulting in the door being unable to lock.

　　The working principle of radio jammers is not complicated. Car keys usually communicate with the in-car system through radio signals to issue lock or unlock commands. The thieves' jammers will send interference signals at the same time as the key sends a signal, so that the in-car system cannot receive the lock command, and the vehicle will remain unlocked, becoming an "open target" for thieves.
