anykind of standard electromagnetic wave (radio, micro, infared, light, UV, Xray, gamma)
it will not be used to control robot
it will not interfere with body
it will not heat up body
the power for the coils will be from the battery not external.
i hope this clears up any future comfusion

From this post I will assume that witricity is magic not electromagnetic induction.
Everything I know about electromagnetic induction indicates that using two inducting coils would both interfere with and heat the body of the frame. Take any high school physics book and look up eddy currents. The principle is essentially that any piece of metal contains hundreds of conducting loops which will all form currents when in the presence of a changing magnetic field. Such loops will generate heat and suck power from the desired application. You will notice that there was no nearby metal in the M.I.T. test and that the only barrier used was a WOODEN BOARD.
