Outdoor living led by moguls like Jack Ma and Richard Liu, Xinzou Beidou pioneers global outdoor black tech
In China, there are currently 130 million users participating in outdoor sports, including 60 million who enjoy more specialized activities such as rock climbing, camping, and trekking. As the living standards of Chinese citizens improve, more and more people have embraced outdoor activities as a way of life.
The high-intensity, fast-paced life in big cities leaves no room for slack—fall behind, and you risk the fear of being left behind by society. Work and life often operate in states of overload and extreme tension, suffocating people under immense pressure. Now, with spring in full bloom and the scenery irresistibly inviting, as grass sprouts and all things renew, the vitality of spring awakens the slumbering and inspires people to immerse themselves in nature’s embrace. Escape the hustle and bustle of the city with family and friends—go hiking, off-roading, trekking. Breathe in the fresh air of mountains and fields, release the “anxiety, depression, and frustration” hidden in body and mind, and fully enjoy the freedom and unparalleled joy the outdoors brings. In this moment, you’ve already reached your ideal poem and distant horizon~~
During outdoor trips, although the scenery is beautiful, most areas are rarely frequented by humans and the journey is full of hardship and challenges. In these remote places, mobile signals are often poor, with large dead zones, making disconnection a major factor in frequent outdoor accidents. Faced with vast mountains, trapped individuals may not be able to determine or accurately describe their location, let alone establish contact with the outside world. Currently, after outdoor accidents occur, rescue teams often fail to receive distress signals in time, missing golden rescue windows. Even when rescue requests are received, specific location details are usually lacking, forcing teams to conduct blanket searches that consume extensive manpower and resources, resulting in low rescue efficiency. Meanwhile, rescuers also face risks of secondary injury.
In March 2019, Xinzou Radar, in collaboration with Taobao Crowdfunding, launched the third-generation satellite communication product—Xinzou Beidou. This product innovatively integrates a digital walkie-talkie, outdoor GPS, and satellite phone into one, aiming to completely solve the problem of no-signal communication in the outdoors. This groundbreaking innovation is a world first. Its SOS function can send precise location information with one click to nearby rescue teams during sudden dangers, greatly aiding accurate and efficient rescue efforts and ensuring personal safety in the outdoors. With such robust performance, the arrival of Xinzou Beidou is expected to make a significant splash in the field of no-signal communication solutions.
According to official representatives, Xinzou Beidou’s satellite communication utilizes Beidou short message technology, enabling users to send and receive satellite messages and location data between devices in any no-signal or weak-signal environment, while also allowing satellite text messages to be sent to family and friends’ phones to stay connected. It easily meets the essential needs of travelers, off-road fleets, explorers, and outdoor workers for unlimited-distance team communication and for updating loved ones on their safety. Currently available in the Asia-Pacific region, global coverage will begin next year.
Xinzou Beidou intelligently fuses satellite communication and digital radio communication to achieve a dual-communication safeguard mode, which is also a highlight of the product’s attention. Its powerful radio communication feature is better suited for team interactions, offering real-time and flexible communication.
The integration of digital radio communication and satellite communication is highly suitable for partners in off-roading, self-driving, marine exploration, scientific expeditions, and fieldwork. For close-range communication, voice chat, text messaging, location sharing, route tracking, and mutual tracing can be achieved directly via radio—real-time and convenient. Beyond radio range, messages can be successfully sent via the Beidou satellite, with the dual communication methods strongly ensuring continuous and stable connectivity to prevent disconnection. For SOS wilderness rescue, one-click SOS sends location and incident info to teammates, family, and rescue teams, enabling three-party collaboration for precise rescue and effective life protection. Such a powerful outdoor SOS rescue mechanism is believed to offer outdoor enthusiasts an added layer of safety.
Xinzou Beidou supports shared satellite communication functionality, extending satellite communication capabilities to Xinzou Radar’s series of radio products, enabling radio equipment to also achieve satellite communication. It’s somewhat like sharing a Wi-Fi hotspot—each team only needs one Xinzou Beidou, and others using Xinzou Radar radio gear can achieve full-team satellite communication, significantly reducing team communication costs. Xinzou Beidou is also the world’s first device that enables radio products to share satellite communication.
In addition to its cutting-edge and robust features, Xinzou Beidou is also highly capable in performance to withstand the harsh challenges of the wild. It is dustproof and shockproof, with IPX67 outdoor-grade waterproofing; 96-hour ultra-long standby ensures no worries about battery life; it comes with a clip and strap for various carrying methods, meeting diverse user needs and easily adapting to different gear-wearing styles.
Xinzou Beidou is currently available on Taobao through crowdfunding at 2,499 RMB per unit. Compared to a satellite phone at 7,600 RMB + ongoing service fees, a digital walkie-talkie at around 2,000 RMB, or a Garmin outdoor GPS starting at 3,000 RMB, Xinzou Beidou delivers the functionality of all three products at less than half the price of a single satellite phone. The cost-performance ratio of this product has reached new heights.
The Xinzou Beidou project will conclude its crowdfunding on March 29, with a post-launch price of 2,999 RMB per unit. If you love the outdoors, get one for yourself now—so no matter where you explore, you can always update your family on your safety.
