With Shogun Markerless, if you want to track props, your Vicon Markerless system must include optical cameras. In this type of hybrid system, you can create simple, single-segment (and therefore rigid) props.

This section covers these topics about props:

For information on creating a prop as a custom L-frame, see [Set the origin with a custom L-frame](https://vicon-help.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ShogunMarkerless121/pages/1253507147/Set+the+volume+origin#CustomLFrame).

In addition to tracking props by attaching passive markers to them, if required you can use Vicon SuperNovas to mount one or more active markers (LEDs) or passive markers on props.

> ⚠️ **Caution**  
> ⚠️ Active markers are suitable for use on rigid objects only and Vicon does not support or encourage their use on live performers. If you have any queries on the safe use of active markers, please contact [Vicon Support](mailto:support@vicon.com).
