''Bamzooki'' (styled as ''BAMZOOKi'') is a children's mixed reality television gameshow which features a computer-generated toolkit developed by Gameware Development. The first series aired in March 2004 on CBBC and was presented by Jake Humphrey. It has very occasionally featured specials with Sophie McDonnell. The toolkit allowed children to construct digital mobile creatures known as "Zooks", which compete in a variety of computer-generated games. The games took place on a table using augmented reality technology. Each series was composed in a tournament format which determined a series champion. The original series lasted until 2006. In July 2008, it was announced that Bamzooki was returning. A new thirteen-part series began in November 2009 and was now hosted by Barney Harwood and Gemma Hunt. The show was retitled "Bamzooki: Street Rules" and featured a dramatic change in the appearance (which appropriately took place on the streets and inside a tower), a revamped toolkit with improved physics and graphics and a "Zook Doctor". However, no series of Bamzooki has been aired since. ==Zooks== A Zook is an autonomous creature designed by users and contestants in the gameshow. Created using 3D primitives, Zooks move autonomously based on IK points that the designer assigns to them. Using nature as inspiration, contestants design Zooks to compete against other Zooks in a variety of competitions. The tool kit for designing Zooks is offered for download on the show's website. Also, more recently, two new Zook-Kit features have been released that allow users to simulate the TV contests and then replay their Zooks' performances from multiple angles. Gameware's Creature Labs team uses artificial life programming techniques to provide the Zooks' autonomous movement and behaviour and integrates this with the BBC's virtual studio system to enable real-time visualisations in a studio setting. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bamzooki」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
