N2 - A nonholonomic under-actuated robot with a bounded control range travels inside an unknown and unstructured 3D tunnel bounded by a generic 2D surface. The robot has access to the nearest point of the surface and measures the distance to the surface along any ray from a narrow beam emitted from the robot around the direction to the nearest point. We present a new navigation law that ensures constant advancement of the robot through the tunnel, along with respecting a given safety margin to its surface, driving the robot to the desired distance to it, and subsequently maintaining this distance.
