The Corona Scanned Material allows you to use Chaos Scans with Corona.

There are some materials that are impossible to recreate with any number of parameters and maps in a generalized material, as they have a unique way of responding to light. This is where Chaos Scans comes in. Each material in the library is meticulously scanned to capture how it interacts with light so that you can drag-and-drop it into your scene for 100% accuracy in both look and scale.

File – The file name with the data for the scanned material; usually has a .vrscan extension.

Reload – Refreshes the .vrscan file loaded in the material.

2-Sided – Forces the back-facing polygons to be shaded in the same way as the front-facing ones. When disabled, the back-facing polygons appear black. This can be useful for objects like curtains. Note that this option is always considered enabled when rendering transparent materials.

Disable transparency – Disables transparency for materials that store such information. This can be useful for speeding up the rendering, especially when the transparency produces little or no effect.

Information – Displays some useful information contained in the .vrscan file, such as the actual material sample size.
