Abstract
A personal mobility device includes a helmet, for example, when renting the personal mobility device, and can improve user safety based on an output of a sensor provided in the helmet. The personal mobility device further includes: a transceiver; a helmet storage device in which the helmet provided with at least one sensor is stored; and a controller configured to control the transceiver to be wirelessly connected to the helmet when receiving a signal indicating separation between the helmet storage device and the helmet from the helmet storage device, and to control the transceiver to transmit a signal requesting the activation of the at least one sensor to the helmet.
