Is it always true that what comes in must go out? Is it possible, say, some black material just absorbs the light and do little reflection (so that the energy transforms into thermal energy)?

richardnnn

It's not mentioned in the slide but you mentioned light actually bounces around several times inside skin, why is that the case?

jonasjiang

In this case, the frequency of the incoming ray is not guaranteed to be the same when coming out. Do we have a mechanism to handle the frequency change and delete those out of the visible light spectrum?

Are there computational models simulating the last case?

daria

Do we also model the other cases with a scattering function?

viceversa

Different colors have different absorption of light. How to distinguish and calculate?

air54321

How do we distinguish the different cases of photon scattering? How do we know when it should behave for different materials/shapes?

ml2

Would scattering be modeled differently based on what perspective we were looking from, i.e. moving around in a VR?
