With recent advances in the science of consciousness, there is an increased interest in the measurement problem of consciousness (MPC). The development of consciousness measurement systems (CMS) is still in its infancy without a formal framework and established design approach. This article presents a novel consciousness measurement framework that uses measurement workflow, design principles, the concept of observability, consciousness theories and technologies, and philosophical arguments. The framework proposes measurability criteria, applies them to different use cases, and identifies whether existing theories and technologies can measure consciousness attributes for specific use cases. Researchers and engineers can use the framework to develop CMS for individual use cases without being bogged down by the complexity of unknowns in the field of MPC.
