A see through display apparatus includes a see-through, head mounted display and sensors on the display which detect audible and visual data in a field of view of the apparatus. A processor cooperates with the display to provide information to a wearer of the device using a behavior-based real object mapping system. At least a global zone and an egocentric behavioral zone relative to the apparatus are established, and real objects assigned behaviors that are mapped to the respective zones occupied by the object. The behaviors assigned to the objects can be used by applications that provide services to the wearer, using the behaviors as the foundation for evaluation of the type of feedback to provide in the apparatus.
