Como integro una placa de Arduino con xbee en smart things

You must purchase a SmartThings ThingShield. It mounts on the Arduino, and talks to SmartThings with Zigbee.

Announcing the "ST_Anything" Arduino/ThingShield Project

1/16/16 - Updated to reflect recent ST IDE nomenclature changes and v2 SmartThings Phone App image. Just a heads up - The current Arduino IDE 1.6.6 has a bug in it which throws a compiler error (invalid namespace) when trying to build ST_Anything. Please continue to use v1.6.5 until 1.6.7 is released. You can use the latest “Hourly Build” of the 1.6.7 IDE as well, since I have confirmed the bug has been fixed in that version, as of 11/28/15. I am happy to share with the SmartThings Community a project that my son and I have been working on for the past two weeks - ST_Anything! Our goal was to make it as easy as possible for anyone with some Arduino hardware/software skills to be able to get a new “Device” up and running in a matter of minutes versus hours/days. We have implemented many…

Xbee and Zigbee are similar, but not the same. SmartThings uses the Zigbee Home Automation (HA) for its communications. Xbee boards need a lot more software to make them Zigbee HA compliant. That is why SmartThings created the ThingShield for the Arduino, as it is able to connect and communicate with the ST Hub, and allows for rapid development.
