How do I send data through FTDI Xbee to PC?

Projects General Guidance

So I want to make a glove that has an accelerometer that sends the data to the PC so that I can use it as a PC controller, kind of like how you hook up an xbox 360 controller. My setup consists of an arduino with an xbee shield and an Xbee Explorer by Sparkfun with an xbee on it hooked up to the pc. I tried looking up how to do this on the internet for a while now with very little luck. I did find this site XBEE Tutorial

My goal is to send the data from the accelerometer to the arduino which transmits it from it's xbee to the Xbee on the XBee Explorer and then to the computer, where I can interface it with games, and possibly a crazyflie quadcopter.

Any advice would be great. Thanks!
