</span>You can get adapters for Zigbee that let you connect them to USB or<br>
Serial (DB9/RS232) ports. They either spit the data out directly or as<br>
packets, depending on what mode the devices are in - although that's a<br>
detail for the software side rather than the hardware side.<br>
<br>
Not sure if anyone has made a dedicated Raspberry Pi interface, but you<br>
could probably adapt the RS232 connection if you can't use the USB one<br>
for some reason.<br>
