A smart key system of a vehicle that notifies a user that a fob battery needs to be replaced, including a fob configured to transmit information that the battery needs to be replaced to an in-vehicle communication module configured to transmit the information to an identification authentication unit (IAU); and the IAU configured to transmit the information to an integrated body unit (IBU) configured to notify a user of the information. A smart key system includes: a fob configured to transmit failure information to a BLE module when UWB communication fails due to battery voltage drop; the BLE module configured to receive the failure information, and measure a distance for positioning the fob using a BLE signal; and an IBU configured to transmit an operation signal to a controller configured to control at least one function among vehicle door opening and closing, vehicle start, remote parking, and vehicle door locking.

Devices, methods, and a computer program for releasing transportation vehicle components and a vehicle-to-vehicle communication module. The device for releasing a vehicle component of a transportation vehicle includes at least one interface for communication with further vehicle components of the transportation vehicle and a control module for controlling the at least one interface to receive messages from the further vehicle components of the transportation vehicle and to verify the identity of the further vehicle components based on the received messages and the stored identification data of the further vehicle components. The messages on which the verification of the identity of the further vehicle components is based are messages used in regular operation of the vehicle component. The control module also releases the vehicle component in response to the identity of the further transportation vehicle components being consistent with the stored identification data of the further vehicle components.

A sensor detects a target by transmitting and receiving an electromagnetic wave, and is arranged in a vehicle compartment. A user's mobile terminal is notified via a cloud system when a vehicle is parked, and a suspicious object around the vehicle is detected by monitoring a periphery of the vehicle using the sensor. An obstacle interfering with a periphery monitoring and disposed in the vehicle compartment is detected using the sensor prior to the periphery monitoring. A detected obstacle is moved so as not to interfere with the periphery monitoring.
