Pretty sure this wouldn't be legal.

Robot parts shall not be made from hazardous materials, be unsafe, cause an unsafe condition, or interfere with the operation of other Robots.
B. Speakers, sirens, air horns, or other audio devices that generate sound at a level sufficient to be a distraction
The other things you mentioned are up for debate though, may get called for the same violation considering it says "interfere with the operation of other Robots." One could say if you build a robot that is a giant wall to block the view of the operators you could have a "part" that "interferes" with the "operation" of that robot. But, like I said, its debatable.
