Using two Nanit cameras with a twin bassinet?

Hey everyone! Our twins are arriving in a couple of days and we were gifted two Nanit Pro cameras with floor stands, along with the Nanit Home display.

We have the Delta Children Bondi Beechwood Twin Bassinet, which has two sleeping compartments side by side with a mesh divider. I'm trying to figure out the best way to position both Nanit cameras so each one can monitor and track its respective twin.

Nanit recommends positioning each camera centered over the sleeping area, either from the back or side. That seems straightforward with two separate cribs, but I'm not sure how well it'll work with a twin bassinet since the babies will be so close together.

A few things I'm wondering:

Has anyone successfully positioned two Nanit floor stands around a twin bassinet? Same side, opposite sides, or something else?

Does Nanit accurately track each baby's sleep individually, or does movement from the other twin cause issues?

If you're using Nanit Breathing Wear, have you had any issues with the cameras picking up the wrong baby's breathing band?

How did you configure the crib boundaries in the Nanit app with two sleeping areas so close together?

I'd love to hear from anyone who's tried a similar setup, even if you're using a different twin bassinet. Pictures of your camera placement would be especially helpful!

Thanks in advance!

I'm 6'9", wife is 5'9" and we have twins on the way! It's an incredibly exciting time, but I'm also spinning a bit trying to figure out what car to get. In pretty much every car I drive I put the seat all the way back to the end of the track, and all the way down as far as the power seat will go. Then we'll need to put 2 rear-facing car seats behind us. Looking at SUVs w 3 rows, likely used w low-ish mileage, maybe CPO.

I've driven an Explorer and Buick Encore as rental cars and both worked for me. I recently went to a couple dealerships and sat in:

'26 Hyundai Palisade: Wanted to love it but hated the shifter design and placement on the steering column in the '26, def hitting my right knee.

GMC Acadia / Chevy Traverse: felt roomy but was eyeballing the 2nd row space.

Honda Pilot: '26 was nice but not sure how different then older models

VW Atlas: Actually loved the '26 but again, curious about '23 - '25 models. Also question VW reliability and maintenance. Dunno if that's a myth from a long time ago or if it runs true.

My requirements / desires: Driver leg room, comfortable seats, leg/thigh extender if possible, 2nd row car seat room, good cargo space (twin stroller, bags etc), good sound system if possible. Reliable and safe.

Wife's desires: Decent to good gas mileage, not breaking the bank.

I didn't have time to actually test drive anything yet, just the initial "do I fit?" test.

Anyone have experience with these models? Any models I'm completely overlooking?

I know I likely can't have everything that I want, but would love options.

Figured I'd reach into the community for help solving this equation. Thanks!
