could be a very interesting conversation.

"I was trying to apply pioneering technology to a robot to give us a competive edge in FIRST, with a new type of wireless crab drive."
"Well your disrupting ICBM guidance."
"Sorry."

it wouldn't work like that. Anyways i think the current is magentic not radio, so i don't think that it will interfere. Also when Popsci (Popular Science) ran an article on Witricity they said that it does not interfere with the human body. But i will have safety glasses on anyways.
