Я разделю ответ на две части. Первая часть решает проблему оперативного обновления данных, используя два потока, как предложено @Martineau. Связь между потоками осуществляется с помощью простой блокировки и глобальной переменной.
Вторая часть создает виджет калибровочной шкалы, используя алгоритм вычисления градиента, определенный @ Martineau.
ЧАСТЬ 1:
В этом примере кода показано небольшое окно с одним номером. Номер генерируется в одном потоке, а графический интерфейс отображается в другом потоке.

ЧАСТЬ 2: Ниже показан код для простого виджета калибровочной панели. Панель содержит только 5 тиков, которые вы можете адаптировать, чтобы добавить больше, если хотите Обратите внимание на необходимые форматы ввода. Для проверки виджета генерируется случайное значение, которое отображается на виджете каждые 0,5 с.

Вот как это выглядит:
Чтобы получить обновленную калибровочную линейку в режиме реального времени, вам нужно просто объединить первую и вторую части в вашем приложении.
