A method and apparatus suitable for monitoring biometrical data (e.g., pH
level of a grape) of living organisms is disclosed. A method for
monitoring biometrical data includes providing a chemical matter having a
chemical agent, contacting the chemical matter with a biological matter,
detecting a change in the chemical matter to produce a signal, altering
the signal into an electrical signal, and obtaining biometrical data from
the electrical signal. An apparatus for determining biometrics data of a
living organism includes a capillary tube configured to receive fluid
from the living organism, a hydrogel solution having a volume responsive
to one or more characteristics of the fluid, a capacitor having at least
one plate responsive to the volume of the hydrogel solution, and an
inductor coupled to the capacitor. The inductor and the capacitor form a
circuit having a resonant frequency. Embodiments of the present invention
can advantageously provide a wireless and powerless device for
determining biometrics data of living organisms.
