Hi! Doing SLAM with just a 1-point range sensor is impossible but you can still do some cheapo mapping, please take a look at the Python code that I wrote at this repo: https://github.com/RiccardoGiubilato/ros_autonomous_car. Here I have a crius board hooked up to a wheel encoder and an ultrasonic sensor. The crius (based on atmega328) publishes odometry and range data which is used by a Udoo board mounted on the car itself to build an OccupancyGrid.
