We propose the so-called cubature-on-the-sphere orientation-averaging scheme to be used in scattering computations. The cubature points are optimally arranged on the sphere to produce non-biased and fast convergence in scattering problems requiring numerical orientation averaging. Cubature clearly outperforms the conventional regular grid of sample points on the sphere.
