All I can say is that I'm glad to see people exploring the potential of depth cameras + video. I've done some really basic experiments with Kinect and it looks like they're doing similar but such things will only get better with Kinect V2, Intel's RealSense platform, and eventually, purpose-built hardware/software for just this purpose.
I still think the first big "leap" for VR will be when you can set up a few depth/video cams around a room, have software composite the data into a full 3-d/video stream, and send the data over networks. Interactive movies like this are a good first step but when you can do it over networks, you get into the realm of 3d telepresence and little Skype windows on your PC or phone will seem quaint.
