The Science Behind ‘The Surrogates’

The upcoming Bruce Willis flick "The Surrogates," which is based on a Top Shelf comic, imagines a society where people experience their lives through robot avatars rather than first-hand. A new video after the jump examines some of the science behind the technology in the film, and even prophesies that we will be living in a world similar to "The Surrogates" within ten years, which I find a liiiittle hard to believe, but great sound bite.
