dc.description.abstractSimulating the transport of light in volumes such as clouds or objects with subsurface scattering is computationally expensive. We describe an approximation to such transport using path integration. Unlike the more commonly used diffusion approximation, the path integration approach does not explicitly rely on the assumption that the material within the volume is dense. Instead, it assumes the phase function of the volume material is strongly forward scattering and uniform throughout the medium, an assumption that is often the case in nature. We show that this approach is useful for simulating subsurface scattering and scattering in clouds.en_US
