Chinese state-owned railway enterprises have developed a new BeiDou-based device to potentially upgrade rail monitoring systems, aiming to improve real-time tracking and security for containers on the China-Europe railway express. The device leverages BeiDou-3 for accurate, all-weather location and status perception.
BeiDou scientist Xu Ying, 43, from Sichuan, rejects the 'goddess' label, emphasizing that scientific research is gender-neutral. She joined the BeiDou development team at 23 and is now part of a system competing with GPS.

China's Beidou spatiotemporal industry achieved an output value of 1.3323 trillion yuan in 2025, with the satellite navigation sector alone reaching 629 billion yuan, a 9.24% year-on-year increase. Beidou is now integrated into key national infrastructure and consumer electronics, with 1.4 billion smartphones supporting its positioning.
According to the company, the system blocks GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou communication channels, protecting facilities and territories from unmanned aerial vehicle attacks
