Subsurface scattering (SSS), also known as subsurface light transport (SSLT), [1] is a mechanism of light transport in which light that penetrates the surface of a translucent object is scattered …

Subsurface scattering is a rendering technique that simulates how light penetrates and scatters within video game characters, environments, and objects. It’s a critical technique for achieving …

Aug 20, 2025 · Subsurface scattering occurs when light passes through a translucent surface like a glass of milk or the leaves on a sunny morning, is absorbed, scattered, and re-emitted.

Sep 8, 2007 · The effects of subsurface scattering are an important factor in producing convincing images of skin and other translucent materials. By using several different approximations, we …

Oct 13, 2025 · Subsurface scattering is a phenomenon in which light penetrates the surface of a translucent material, scatters beneath the surface, and then emerges at a different point. This …

Oct 6, 2025 · Subsurface scattering is what happens when we have a translucent object that scatters light about inside its medium as it’s absorbing it, which gives a material a fuzzy, …

Jun 7, 2014 · Subsurface scattering works by simulating how light penetrates a translucent surface and is absorbed, scattered & exits the surface at a different location.

Dec 3, 2024 · Subsurface scattering is when light enters a translucent object, bounces around inside and exits after picking up the colours of the object. Use it in your paintings to breathe life …

Subsurface scattering (SSS) is a phenomenon in which light penetrates the surface of a translucent object, scatters inside the material, and exits at a different point.

The images illustrate some of the different techniques for simulating subsurface scattering. The image on the left was rendered using photon mapping with 200,000 photons used to simulate …
