What ancient Chinese invention used for navigation still works without electricity today?

The ancient Chinese invention used for navigation that still works without electricity today is the magnetic compass.
First developed during the Han Dynasty (2nd century BC to 2nd century AD) as a tool for geomancy and fortune-telling (Feng Shui), it was later adapted for military and maritime navigation during the Song Dynasty (11th century). Because it relies entirely on the Earth's natural magnetic field to align its needle toward the magnetic poles, it requires absolutely no electrical power or battery to function.
