The idea struck him when he was designing a human settlement in space which needed internet. While planning, he realised that it may not be possible to download information from earth every time in space, which made him develop a caching mechanism. This mechanism may also be used for rural areas, where a reliable cellular connection is not present.

This makes the internet more accessible since the satellite is not being used every time.
This cheap, effective and detached method is foolproof and can bring an information revolution in many villages across the country. Sayan believes that technology will shape our future. He wants to develop new products as an entrepreneur and change the world for better, in his own small way.
The above ideas got selected in Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam IGNITE 2016 competition – is a national competition of original technological ideas and innovations by children up to class 12 or those out of school up to the age of 17 years-it is organized by National Innovation Foundation( NIF) every year to promote creativity and originality among children.
