I can't decide if this is cool or frightening.

The fact Walmart feels the need to go about patenting such things is the sad thing!

So basically you can get a patent for saying 'robot does x'?

Has robot goats been patented, their skill is eating grass in hard to reach locations, like a super lawnmower.
