Systems and methods are provided for detecting and preventing sleep onset in a user. The method can include, for example, monitoring the user's heart rate, establishing a baseline average heart rate over a period of time, establishing a threshold heart rate that is less than the baseline average heart rate, detecting a drop in the user's heart rate below the threshold, and in response to detecting the drop, initiating a sleep prevention program.
