From what I have seen from this "ODST Vision" can reveal enemies and vehicles. Why cant it unveil things not able to see in normal view. In that case maybe there will be hidden Easter eggs that you need to find for some achievements. Like the skulls.
Maybe it will won't know till get the game. Might even be a necessity to use the vision to do certain things like he showed in the gameplay at E3.
