Are there any other scales for measuring Machine Consciousness?

ConsScale is very oriented to the cognitive capabilities of the agent. As mentioned above, it doesn't make any claim about phenomenal consciousness. The Ordinal Machine Consciousness scale (OMC) by David Gamez is an attempt to make predictions about the consciousness of non-human systems. 

  Additionally, there exist other approaches for measuring consciousness in biological organisms, like information integration measures.
