How does the Virtual Cockpit feature work in the Audi A6?

I am interested in learning about the Virtual Cockpit feature in the Audi A6. Can someone explain how it functions and what its benefits are?

The Virtual Cockpit is a customizable digital display located behind the steering wheel that replaces the traditional analog instrument cluster. It provides real-time information about speed, navigation, and driving assistance systems, and can also display music and phone controls. It is controlled through the multifunction steering wheel or the voice command system.
