-# OpenMATERIAL
-A new ASAM standard with the target to develop a 3D model exchange format with physical material properties for virtual development, test and validation of automated driving.
+# ASAM OpenMATERIAL 3D
+ASAM OpenMATERIAL 3D standardizes the exchange of 3D assets with physical material properties for virtual development, testing, and validation of automated driving systems.
+
+The project group discussions led to renaming the standard from "ASAM OpenMATERIAL" to "ASAM OpenMATERIAL 3D" to emphasize that the standard not only covers material properties but also 3D geometry.
+
+ASAM OpenMATERIAL 3D is an open-source standard that welcomes contributions from everyone.
+
+## Published version
+The standard is still under development. The published HTML reflects the status of the main branch. It can be found [here](https://asam-ev.github.io/OpenMATERIAL-3D/asamopenmaterial/latest/specification/index.html).
