Yes, his reserach is interesting.

With a feedback of the full scope of sensory input one can experience the world truough the robot. Next step is organic avatars like in the movie.

Also similar techniques could be used to create a network between people where they can exchange information, thoughts and feelings with each other.

In Science Fiction among others Peter Hamilton have explored some of the possibilities such a technique can give you.
