Abstract
The fourth industrial revolution presents a vision of advanced industrial production that is already being implemented by applying new technologies in the automation of production processes, and the exchange and processing of data. In other words, Industry 4.0 integrates the fourth-generation innovations in production processes and in all segments of society. The patents from Industry 4.0 and their implementation are responsible for Industry 4.0 application. The paper analyzes the application and implementation of Industry 4.0 patents in the world, with special attention to the European Union and its developed countries. The analysis was also conducted by industry sectors and leading companies in the application and implementation of Industry 4.0 patents. The paper provides the conclusion of the implementation of Industry 4.0 patents.
