1. A wearable device adapted to monitor a wearer'"'"'s physical activity patterns and to provide assistance to the wearer, comprising:

  • a power source;

    a processor;

    at least one physiologic sensor that provides sensor data of the wearer to the processor;

    a user interface connected to the processor and adapted to interact with the wearer and to provide information to the wearer;

    a network interface configured to provide a network connection between the device and a server; and

    a memory coupled to the processor, said memory storing program instructions that, upon execution by the processor, cause the device to collect, from the at least one physiologic sensor, activity data necessary to determine the physical activity pattern of the wearer over time, to provide the collected activity data to said server via said network interface for processing to create or update behavioral rules for the wearer, said behavioral rules being representative of an activity profile of a physical activity pattern of the wearer over time that is created and updated using historical wearer data including location mapping of the wearer over time, identification of a home area, location boundaries, sleep/wake cycles of the wearer, location time comparisons over different time periods, and physiological sensor measurements, to receive the behavioral rules from the server for comparison to received activity and location data, and to provide to the wearer via said user interface assistance information when a check of the wearer'"'"'s activity and location against the behavioral rules indicates that the wearer is not following the activity profile and may need assistance.
