In this paper we summarize the most important neuronal fundamentals of navigation in rodents, primates and humans. We review a number of brain cells that are involved in spatial navigation and their properties. Furthermore, we review RatSLAM, a working SLAM system that is partially inspired by neuronal mechanisms underlying mammalian spatial navigation.
