That's a darn good question! I've been wondering ever since I started playing the game.

I was hoping maybe there would be some way to transfer energy to set off remote events, kind of like the redstone in Minecraft. I tried shooting at a bunch of different types of blocks (different metals, light blocks, whatever I could think of) and nothing unusual happened.

Maybe they're planning to do something in a future version of the game. Kind of like the "hidden" Pylon and Bomb objects (experiments on a jailbroken device recently revealed these do nothing useful).
