What is the purpose of the Active Lane Assist feature in the Audi A1?

I'm considering purchasing an Audi A1 and I've come across the Active Lane Assist feature. Can anyone explain the purpose and function of this feature? How does it differ from traditional lane departure warning systems?

Active Lane Assist in the Audi A1 is a driver assistance feature that helps keep the vehicle in its designated lane. It works by utilizing a front-facing camera and sensors to detect lane markings and provides gentle steering corrections if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane.

While traditional lane departure warning systems only provide a visual or audible alert, Audi's Active Lane Assist takes it a step further by actively helping the driver stay in their lane. It's a great safety feature for those who tend to drift or get distracted while driving.
