Question

transponder When a patient is admitted to an emergency room, an implanted transponder can relay important data about his or her medical history. trænˈspɑndər

Accepted Answer

A radio or radar set that emits a radio signal after receiving such a signal. This word was coined during World War II by simply joining pieces of the words transmitter and responder. Transponders are basic to modern aviation and communications satellites, and they're finding new uses in fields such as medicine as well. But they're now also part of everyday life. The “E-ZPass” that lets you drive right through turnpike tollbooths is a transponder, and the car you're driving may not even start unless it recognizes the signal from your personal key's transponder. In a big crowded foot race, you may carry a tiny transponder on your shoe that records when you cross both the starting line and the finish line
