 CAS is implemented in a way that makes the system COLREGS compliant. Indeed, for the AutoNaut to operate with a risk-reducing and predictable behaviour to the operators and other vessels it is required to adhere to the rules specified by the COLREGs. CAS uses the available information to evaluate COLREGS compliance in a hazardous situation, e.g. encountering an obstacle. COLREGs is a set of regulations and navigation rules to be followed by ships and other marine vessels at sea to prevent collisions between two or more vessels. All marine surface vessels are required to adhere to COLREGs at all times in order to minimize or eliminate the risk of collisions. Consequently, it is necessary for the CAS to also adhere to COLREGs in order to produce predictable maneuvers when encountering other vessels. The COLREGs rules are divided into five parts (A-E), however, the rules covered in Part B - Steering and Sailing is the most relevant and applicable for AutoNaut and this thesis. \\
 To differentiate the COLREGs situation and when to apply actions, four different sectors are defined. The following diagram displays how COLREGs situations are classified.

+Note that the Crossing sectors are overlapping the Head-on section. The reason is that you can still experience a Crossing situation when the obstacle is inside the Head-on section. Consider, for example, a situation where an obstacle is in the head-on section, and moving with a heading of 90°relative to the ASV heading. Hence not moving towards the ASV, so this situation be a crossing situation, but still with a potential collision cost in the head-on section.
