Sort of...those three precogs saw visions of violent acts and combined them into one aggregate vision. If there was one vision that didn't match up, it would become the "minority report".

and, since electrons to your brain travel at less the speed of light, you wouldn't even realize that you were looking at yourself standing up until it was too late to see it
