This paper focuses on the implementation of a SLAM framework comprising a planner, a percept and a displacement/angular error estimator using a regular occupancy grid spatial memory representation. The overall process is arbitrated by a finite state machine (FSM) invoking the compo-nents of the framework according to the deliberate paradigm, SENSE-PLAN-ACT as described by R. Murphy [1], with the occasional exception of the interstitial invoca-tion of a correction process, based on the estimated angular and displacement error during the execution of the planned tasks. The FSM uses a global task queue in order to execute the tasks that the planner produced during the previous call.
