Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating a first light wave by an emitter of the sensor system and detecting a second light wave by a detector of the sensor system. The second light wave is detected in response to the first light wave being reflected from a target object. The sensor system includes a first converter that obtains a first temperature measurement from a temperature sensor of the sensor system at least when the first light wave is generated or when the second light wave is detected. A temperature controller computes temperature coefficients to regulate a temperature of the sensor system.

The temperature controller generates a control signal to regulate the temperature of the sensor system based on the computed temperature coefficients.

A method for contactlessly determining the temperature of a moving object having an unknown degree of emission, especially a metal wire conveyed along its longitudinal axis, is described. The object is guided through at least one radiation source emitting thermal radiation, wherein the object is mostly or completely surrounded by the at least one radiation source. With at least one radiation detector, a spatially-resolved thermal radiation measurement is performed in a region through which the object passes when it is guided through the radiation source. The temperature of the moving object is determined on the basis of the spatially-resolved thermal radiation measurement. A corresponding device is also described.
