Outside Handle for Smart Key System Achieving High Quality and High Functionality

• The locking operation is conducted by using a capacitance touch-sensor and the door is locked by just touching the lock sensor portion. Thus, it is not necessary to push the lock button unlike the conventional door handle
• The lock button is eliminated from the system and the configuration enables sophisticated handle design
• Incorporating a transmit antenna, lock/unlock sensors, a sensor detecting circuit in the outside handle improves the mountability and reduces cost
