Subsurface Scattering - Transmittance

Hi there,

I have a question related to SSS and especially transmittance. I've looked at several papers about that topic, most of them from Jorge Jimenez, which are very interesting and, I admit, a bit hard for me.

Here is one of the papers : http://www.iryoku.com/translucency/

I have some difficulties to understand the way it works and the way it calculates the distance the light traveled through the object. I think that I understand the very big lines but I am also a bit confused as I am trying to integrate this into the Unity engine and I have some difficulties to match Unity engine available values such as the shadows maps, the shadows coords, etc... to make them fit the way they are used in the paper.

So here it is, I am a bit lost in the "in-between" and I hope that somebody might be able to help me.

Thanks a lot.
