Biomechatronic design combines mechanical and electric product design principles with biotechnology [1]. Systematic conceptual design, used for decades in product development for mechanical products is here adapted to cope with the complexity of biological systems and processes. Typical examples are bioreactors and biosensors. The biomechatronic design facilitates and coordinates the product development work by using a few simple procedures, tools and models. In this report these tools and models are applied on the design of sensor systems used for monitoring and controlling biotechnology production processes.
