1. A wearable apparatus for monitoring fatigue and notifying a user, the wearable apparatus comprising:

  • a motion sensor configured to monitor motion of the user;

    a notification generator configured to issue a stimulus and to generate a warning to the user in response to receipt of a signal;

    a processor coupled to the motion sensor and the notification generator, the processor configured to;

    obtain a base responsiveness profile of the user for a prescribed motion;

    generate a current responsiveness profile of the user for the prescribed motion from the monitored motion of the user in response to the stimulus, wherein the monitored motion includes the prescribed motion;

    determine whether the user response to the stimulus exceeds a predetermined threshold of the base responsiveness profile by comparing the current responsiveness profile to the base responsiveness profile; and

    send the signal to the notification generator when the user response exceeds the predetermined threshold of the base responsiveness profile; and

    a support configured to support the motion sensor, notification generator, and processor on the user.
