ANNALES KINESIOLOGIAE • 12 • 2021 • 1 63 REPORTS AND REVIEWS/POROČILA IN OCENE, 59–66 SLOVENIAN MOBILE BRAIN/BODY IMAGING LABORATORY (SloMoBIL) On 8 July 2021, the Institute for Kinesiology Research of the Science and Research Centre Koper (ZRS Koper) acquired a new laboratory. Slovenian Brain/Body Imag- ing Laboratory (SloMoBIL), is equipped with the latest technology for investigating neuromuscular efficiency, which will significantly help in conducting research aimed at in-depth understanding of our brains during movement. SloMoBIL laboratory is one of the few laboratories in the world to use such technology and approaches to investigate brain processes during movement and in connection with the movement information yielded. A comprehensive understanding of the brain dynamics associated with real-life in non-static conditions, will provide insight into the complex processes of embodied cognition. The establishment of the SloMoBIL laboratory represents one of the key milestones of the international project “TwinBrain: TWINning the BRAIN with machine learning for neuro-muscular efficiency (ID 952401),” which will be implemented between 2020 and 2023. In addition to ZRS Koper, the lead partner of the TwinBrain project, the consortium consists of the Technical University Berlin (Tehnische Universität Berlin), the University of Geneva (Université de Genève) and the neurology department of the Cattinara Hospital in Trieste (Università degli Studi di Trieste). As a key element of the partnerships, the members of SloMoBIL made the first transfer of knowledge at 64 REPORTS AND REVIEWS/POROČILA IN OCENE, 59–66 ANNALES KINESIOLOGIAE • 12 • 2021 • 1 the Technical University of Berlin, and in the future, a visit to Geneva and a study on Parkinson’s patients in Trieste are also expected. At the opening ceremony speeches were delivered by prof. dr. Rado Pišot, direc- tor of ZRS Koper, prof. dr. Boštjan Šimunič, Head of the Institute for Kinesiology Research ZRS Koper, Assoc. prof. dr. Uroš Marušič, head and principal investigator of the TwinBrain project, prof. dr. Klaus Gramann, TwinBrain project partner, and keynote speaker, prof. dr. Jadran Lenarčič. Accompanied by musician David Kocmur, dancer Urša Rupnik presented part of the newly acquired equipment of the SloMoBIL, the Full Body Kinematics, which detects body movements via high-frequency cameras and inertial sensors positioned around the limbs, torso, and head, and projects the dancer’s avatar in real time on the screen. After the ceremony, SloMoBIL Laboratory opened its doors. Within, the working groups prepared interactive presentations of electroencephalography (EEG) and its ap- plication in the field of neurofeedback, the use of virtual environments (VR) for reha- bilitation after unilateral upper limb injury, and investigation of motor unit activation by electromyography (EMG) on the example of balance training. The tour of the laboratory was followed by socializing and refreshments. In addition to the above-mentioned people, we would like to thank Maja Maša Šömen, Daša Gorjan, Nina Omejc, Luka Šlosar, Miloš Kalc, Aleksandar Miladinović, Teja Ličen, Nika Štravs and the entire ZRS Koper team, as well as Matej Sukič, David Nik Lipovac and Draško Golubar.

SloMoBIL, akronim za Slovenian Brain/Body Imaging Laboratory, je opremljen z najnovejšo tehnologijo za raziskovanje živčno-mišične učinkovitosti, ki bo pomembno pripomogla k izvajanju raziskav za po- globljeno razumevanje naših možganov med gibanjem. Laboratorij SloMoBIL je eden redkih laboratorijev na svetu, ki uporablja tako tehnologijo in pristope za raziskovanje možganskih procesov med gibanjem in v povezavi z gibalnimi informacijami. Približe- vanje oz. posnemanje okoliščin iz resničnega življenja omogoča celovito razumevanje možganske dinamike v nestatičnih pogojih in daje vpogled v kompleksne procese ute- lešene kognicije. Vzpostavitev laboratorija SloMoBIL je eden glavnih mejnikov mednarodnega pro- jekta TwinBrain: TWINning the BRAIN with machine learning for neuro-muscular efficiency (ID 952401), ki se izvaja med letoma 2020 in 2023. Ob ZRS Koper so pro- jektni partnerji še Tehniška univerza v Berlinu (Tehnische Universität Berlin), Univer- za v Ženevi (Université de Genève) in nevrološki oddelek bolnišnice Katinara v Trstu (Università degli Studi di Trieste). V sklopu partnerstev so člani SloMoBIL-a opravili prvi prenos znanja na Tehniški univerzi v Berlinu, v prihodnosti pa se obeta tudi obisk v Ženevi in izvedba raziskave na bolnikih s Parkinsonovo boleznijo v Trstu. 66 REPORTS AND REVIEWS/POROČILA IN OCENE, 59–66 ANNALES KINESIOLOGIAE • 12 • 2021 • 1 Na slavnostni otvoritvi so sodelovali prof. dr. Rado Pišot, direktor ZRS Koper, prof. dr. Boštjan Šimunič, predstojnik Inštituta za kineziološke raziskave ZRS Koper, izr. prof. dr. Uroš Marušič, vodja projekta TwinBrain, prof. dr. Klaus Gramann, partner projekta TwinBrain, in slavnostni govorec prof. dr. Jadran Lenarčič. Na otvoritvi je plesalka Urša Rupnik ob glasbeni spremljavi Davida Kocmurja predstavila del novopridobljene opreme SloMoBIL-a, natančneje Full Body Kinema- tics, ki z visokofrekvenčnimi kamerami ter inercialnimi senzorji okoli okončin, trupa in glave zaznava premike telesa in v realnem času projicira na zaslon plesalkin avatar. Po slavnostni otvoritvi je laboratorij SloMoBIL odprt svoja vrata. V njem so delov- ne skupine pripravile interaktivne predstavitve elektroencefalografije (EEG) na prime- ru nevrofeedbacka, uporabe virtualnih okolij (VR) za rehabilitacijo po unilateralni po- škodbi zgornje okončine in raziskovanje aktivacije motoričnih enot z elektromiografijo (EMG) na primeru treninga ravnotežja. Po ogledu laboratorija sta sledila druženje in pogostitev.
