It could be plausible with NIRS which can scan the brain to the level of accuracy needed for motor functions, the sight part would most likely have to be done by something reminiscent of an Oculus rift although the touch and feeling of moving muscles is all done within the parietal lobe so it could be stimulated using something like a tACS machine but we haven't done enough research to know which areas to stimulate also a tACS machine covers a large area but it would need to be more precise and powerful, sounds could easily be done through inbuilt headphones. Smell is more difficult with smell being registered and understood in the olfactory bulb which is deep in the brain although it could be sent directly to the temporal lobe but like the parietal we haven't researched in enough depth which neurons are responsible for specific activities other than those issues it's possible all that needs to be done is more research into how the signals within our brain translate to external stimuli.
