We can use a camera to see location. According to dimensional theory, space is three-dimensional, meaning that Where I am right now is a dimension. We also assume that a dimension is basically a container, meaning that all that is in terms of matter(IE Space) is contained within the third-dimension. So if we assume that time is the fourth dimension, it's more complicated, but could we use a camera to see a location further in time? We can use a camera today to see a remote space, so perhaps in time we could use that to see a specific location in the future?

I know it doesn't make sense, and it might not be logical, but IT's just something that has been on my mind for a lil while now..

You left out a few dimensions -- don't forget string theory.

It is simple.

We haven't found anything to travel faster than the speed of light.
So the cameras picture would simply be black.
A human in the future would simply be nothingness.
If there were a camera that could take pictures faster than light could travel than the light would not yet be at the location.

Basically figure out a way to make light travel faster and you will be half way there.

The taste of light. The smell of sound. Nothing is logical. Yet everything isn't illogical. There is a corner around a corner that you haven't went around yet.
