Gemalto is providing its Trusted Services Hub (TSH) to support Daimler AG’s new smartphone-based “digital vehicle key” for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class range. The car maker’s solution gives drivers the freedom to lock/unlock and start their vehicles using nothing more than an NFC smartphone.
 
With the key safely downloaded to a secure element via Gemalto’s TSH, drivers can lock/unlock their cars by simply placing the smartphone against the door handle. The engine can also be turned on with the phone in the charging tray of the dashboard and pressing the start button. Capable of operating even if the phone battery is drained, the need to carry a conventional key is eliminated.
