As far as I can tell, they serve no purpose to the 'AI' in the game.
They are however neat "FX" and can help you when it comes to deja' vou.
The "have'nt I been here before" question.

Sometimes I use them as targets when I'm just foolin around.
I'l slide and fire at an array of glass screens and determine my 
effective hits percentage.

But in the game, I use them as markers for the most part.
