How does the new Night Vision Assistant work in the Audi A8?

I heard about the Night Vision Assistant feature in the Audi A8, but I'm not quite sure how it works. Can you provide some details on its functionality and effectiveness?

The Night Vision Assistant uses infrared technology to detect potential hazards on the road at night, such as pedestrians or animals. It displays a warning on the instrument panel and even applies the brakes if necessary.

The Night Vision Assistant is a great safety feature, but remember to always stay alert and pay attention to your surroundings while driving at night.
