Abstract
Heterogeneous subsurface scattering in translucent materials is one of the most beautiful but complex effects. We acquire spatial BSSRDF datasets using a projector, and develop a novel nonlinear factorization that separates a homogeneous kernel, and heterogeneous discontinuities. This enables rendering of complex spatially-varying translucent materials.
