Display the CPU temperature

Is there a way to display the CPU temperature?

I think you would need to install some packages for this.

Luci-app-statistics & collectd-mod-thermal

Somehow I am confused by similar packages, there is also a package "collectd-mod-sensor" which is reporting similar thing?

Not sure. Collectd-mod-thermal is what you want.

Not all SOC have hardware to monitor CPU temperature. First check that the kernel driver has created a /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0 directory. Userspace applications like collectd obtain their data from that directory.

This module is for any other non-cpu temperature sensors in your device. In most cases this is in WiFi chipsets:
