A few questions :mrgreen:

Is this an unbiased algorithm?
What is different about this than SSS?
Does this only work for emitters and sunlight?
Is this a material we apply to a mesh or is it a sort of environment the world sits in?
Can we control density with maps/textures?
Can the camera be inside the volume?
What are some limitations?

Yes

It is sss, just it can react to direct lighting.

What else should it work with?

I like most of those answers :D

What I meant by working with emitters and sun only is that does it only take samples from light sources and not reflected light or bounces? Can I make a mirror and reflect light from the sun into the volume correctly?

Also, slightly off topic, but why does the camera being inside the volume pose a problem? Can't you "pretend" there is an infinitely small space exactly where the camera sits? Or truncate rays that are traveling through the volume? Not trying to sound know-it-all, just curious.
