In the last ten years, the development and research of advanced technologies, as well as their application in all segments of society, have led to major changes and reshaping of the new world. New innovations are occurring on a daily basis, but their application is not going fast enough due to the rigid infrastructure. However, in order to secure an optimal future, we all have to adapt to the changes that are coming. The developed countries have adopted the strict implementation of advanced technologies of Industry 4.0, some of which include: Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, Cloud Computing, smart sensors, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), 3D printing, advanced security systems, Virtual and Augmented Reality (VAR), etc. Robotics is the basic and first technology that has been implemented since the 60s of the last century, with artificial intelligence coming in the spotlight in the last ten years. Artificial intelligence is becoming a key to the development of advanced robots, as it enables them to adapt to unpredictable situations, to learn from experience and make intelligent decisions.Robots use AI to process sensor data, navigate, recognize objects, plan paths and interact with the environment. In short, artificial intelligence enables robots to be smart, whereas robotics uses AI to create autonomous and useful devices. This symbiosis contributes to progress in many industries, including healthcare, manufacturing and transportation. Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are two key fields that complement each other. The paper presents the trend of applied and approved patents in artificial intelligence and robotics, as well as an example of the use of artificial intelligence in advanced robots to perform certain tasks. Artificial intelligence (AI) is having an increasing impact on robotics, opening up many possibilities.

In recent advancements in robotics, Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods such as Deep Learning, Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), Transformers, and Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly enhanced robotic capabilities. Key AI models driving advancements in robotic vision include Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Vision Transformers (ViTs), the DEtection Transformers (DETR), the YOLO family of algorithms, segmentation techniques, and 3D vision technologies. Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), an AI technique where agents learn optimal behaviors through trial and error interactions with their environment, enables robots to perform complex tasks autonomously. Transformers, originally developed for natural language processing, have been adapted to robotics for tasks involving sequence prediction and data understanding, improving perception and decision-making processes. LLMs leverage vast amounts of text data to enhance robot-human interaction, enabling robots to understand and generate human-like language, thus improving their communicative and collaborative abilities in various applications. The integration of these AI methods enhances the adaptability, efficiency, and overall performance of robotic systems, paving the way for more sophisticated and intelligent autonomous agents.

Since the introduction of the concept of Industry 4.0 until today, the world is facing a series of changes resulting from intensive scientific, technical and technological innovations. Research, innovation and development changes are aimed at improving production, business and everyday life through the application of basic technologies of Industry 4.0. In order for individuals, organizations, communities and states to be able to use the benefits of these improvements, it is necessary to rapidly adapt to all innovative trends: developing the necessary skills of individuals and groups for the adoption and use of these technologies, the implementation of technologies in companies, organizations and institutions, and the development of appropriate strategies that these processes would be managed and directed. In the developed world, these I 4.0 implementation processes are already reaching their maturity: educational programs are adapted to the needs of monitoring technical-technological changes, companies deal with solving challenges related to these processes after the implementation of Industry 4.0 technologies, and states and communities are working on devising further directions of development and a strategy that will further accelerate changes. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the processes are somewhat slower: educational programs partially follow the needs of education for Industry 4.0, companies struggle with the challenges of adopting and implementing Industry 4.0 without adequate institutional support, and strategies related to exploiting the opportunities of Industry 4.0 have not been developed, both due to the lack of initiative, as well as due to administrative restrictions related to the complex political system of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Considering that, this paper presents the results of research on the representation of Industry 4.0 technologies in the economy and education of Sarajevo Canton. The sample on which the research was conducted included 105 companies and 239 respondents from the general population. The results show that the highest level of application of Industry 4.0 technologies exists in the part related to the advanced management of company resources using planning and management support systems, and in communications. These findings, as well as the results related to the established level of knowledge of Industry 4.0 technologies in the general population, speak in favor of the need for the urgent development of various educational programs that will accelerate the learning of Industry 4.0 among all members of the community, as well as the establishment of state programs to support the implementation of technologies in companies, so that the economy of the Canton and the country as a whole would not fall behind in relation to the world driven by the fourth industrial revolution.

The implementation of disruptive technologies of Industry 4.0 is carried out in all segments of society, but we still do not fully understand the breadth and speed of its application. We are currently witnessing major changes in all industries, so that new business methods are emerging, as well as transformation of production systems, new form of consumption, delivery and transport. All this is happening due to the implementation of disruptive technological discoveries that include: the Internet of Things (IoT), advanced robotics, smart sensors, Big Data, analytics, cloud computing, 3D printing, machine learning, virtual and augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence, and productive maintenance. Advanced robotics is one of the most important technologies in Industry 4.0. The robotic application in the automation of production processes, with the support of information technology, leads us to ‘’smart automation’’, i.e., ‘’smart factory’’. The changes are so profound that, from the perspective of human history, there has never been a time of greater promise or potential danger. New generation robots have many advantages compared to the firstgeneration industrial robots such as: they work alongside with workers, workers perform their tasks in a safe environment, robots take up less space, robots do not need to be separated by fences, robots are easy to manipulate and cheaper to implement. The paper analyzes the trend of implementation of collaborative and service robots for logistics, which make the automation of production processes more flexible. Robotic technology is the basic technology of Industry 4.0, because without its application, the implementation of Industry 4.0 would not be possible. The trend of application of new generation robots will have an increasing character in the future, because the goals of the fourth industrial revolution cannot be achieved without collaborative robots. In other words, the objective is to achieve a ‘’smart production process’’ or ‘’smart factory’’.

Digital twins represent a new paradigm that brings fundamental changes to business and asset management. The proliferation of connected devices and sensors has generated vast amounts of data from physical assets and processes.

Therefore, this paper serves as a comprehensive source of information for researchers, practitioners, and decision-makers who wish to explore the application of digital twins in different industries and domains.

The article deals with modeling and calculations of volumetric machine-building structures with complex geometry. The relevance of the work lies in the fact that its methodology and results can help design massive structural elements complex in shape, including cylinders of powerful hydraulic presses. Attention is paid to the problems of reducing the metal content of machine-building products and the safe conditions of their operation. Theoretical and applied work is based on numerical methods using analytical solutions to assess the reliability of computer calculation results. The choice of research method is because analytical solutions for massive parts of such a configuration are too complex for numerical implementation. Experimental methods are too expensive and not so universal as to sort out possible variants of shapes and sizes. For the actual model of the press, the capabilities of the finite element method implemented in the ANSYS multipurpose complex were selected and rationally used. The results of the calculations are summarized in the table and shown on the graphs of the stress distribution. Based on the performed calculations (with a reliability check based on the formulas of the theory of elasticity for simplified calculation schemes), conclusions were made to ensure a more even distribution of stresses and a reduction in the metal content of the product.

Industry 4.0 has a significant impact on the automation of production processes, by causing numerous changes in three segments: companies, technology and workers. Developed countries worldwide have their own strategies on Industry 4.0, which offer guidelines on its implementation in production processes, with the aim of their complete flexible automation. The core technologies on which Industry 4.0 rests have led to a complete transformation in production processes, especially in the automotive industry. The basic technology of Industry 4.0 is robot technology, i.e., the implementation of industrial and service robots in production processes. The paper provides an analysis of the implementation of industrial robots and service robots in the automation of production processes in the automotive industry with a focus on China. The analysis of the automation of production processes of the automobile industry in China was carried out for two reasons. The first is that China has a growing middle-class population, so demographic trends are encouraging the growing demand for certain products, such as cars. Another reason is that in China (as in Japan, Russia and Western Europe) the average age of factory workers is increasing (the labor force is older), thus the performance of certain tasks becomes more difficult so greater efficiency is not achieved. The paper analyzes vehicle production in China, as well as the readiness of production processes in the automotive industry for the implementation of Industry 4.0.
