Abstract

A temperature measurement device having a thermopile temperature sensor and a proximity sensor, a mobile temperature measurement device, and a method for determining a corrected temperature with a temperature measurement device are described. In an implementation, a temperature measurement device includes a semiconductor device; a thermopile temperature sensor disposed on the semiconductor device, where the thermopile temperature sensor is configured to receive radiation from an object; a proximity sensor disposed on the semiconductor device, the proximity sensor configured to detect a distance between the thermopile temperature sensor and the object; and a controller configured determine a corrected temperature measurement using at least an indication of received radiation and an indication of distance between the thermopile temperature sensor and the object.
