Control ZigBee devices using UPnP

Hi,

My problem is how to control ZigBee devices on the network using an UPnP control point within the OSGi framework.
My approach is to import ZigBee devices from the network into the framework. For that, I'm implementing UPnP devices matching the ZigBee ones using an API that transmit UPnP services and actions to the ZigBee device and the Felix Tester is detecting them like any other UPnP devices, so for each ZigBee device, I have to implement UPnP device and I know that is not the better approach. Can anyone give me an idea?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Asma,

I think that a refinement driver would be the typical OSGi approach. I 
mean that first you should define a ZigBee Device model (similar to the 
UPnP one UPnPDevice, UPnP ACtion , and so on ...) and then refine every 
ZigBeeDevice registered with the framework like UPnPDevice.

In any case, you always need to map UPnP devices (e.g BinaryLight) to 
ZigBee devices (e.g. OnOffLight)

regards,
francesco
