Ltd.10.26689/erd.v8i6.15616ArticleResearch on the Development of the “Beizhong Incense Burner” and Beidou Navigation Model and Marine Education Practicehttps://artdesignp.com/journal/erd/8/6/10.26689/erd.v8i6.15616XuLiujiang,DingFeng,YaoBingbing,KangXinyue,YangDayong,CaiRuixi,LiangYe,ZhouWeiqun2026862026-07-20This project integrates traditional Chinese craftsmanship wisdom with modern technology to develop an intelligent navigation model education system for teenagers. The core innovation lies in the creative transformation of the universal gimbal principle of the “Beizhong Incense Burner” to build a self-stabilizing system named “Beizhong Beidou”. Using a 3D orthogonal dual-ring structure, the Beidou chip and solar panel remain horizontally stable at all times, ensuring reliable satellite signal reception and steady energy input. A “core–hull” decoupled architecture is adopted, with elastic rubber bands for energy dissipation and biodegradable bamboo materials to meet green development requirements. The curriculum follows the concepts of “problem-driven instead of story-driven” and “literacy generation instead of knowledge coverage”, offering a progressive 5-module, 16-class system covering navigation initiation, hull mechanics, programming basics, Beidou navigation, and comprehensive practice. It cultivates students’ engineering thinking and marine responsibility awareness. The project is expected to cover 20 primary and secondary schools and reach 2,000 students in the first year, forming a new “industry–education–research–application” collaborative paradigm for youth science and technology education, and cultivating talent reserves for the national strategy of building a strong marine country.
