Narwal just turned the humble robot vacuum into a roaming AI butler. The Flow 2, unveiled at CES 2026, maps rooms and recognizes unlimited objects through twin 1080p cameras and onboard AI models.
Eyes Everywhere
The Flow 2 packs a 136-degree field of view and processes images locally first. If it can’t identify an item, it pings the cloud for extra help.
Cleaning Modes That Care
Three smart modes tailor cleaning to what matters most:
- Pet care mode – define pet zones, monitor furry friends, and chat through two-way audio
- Baby care mode – drops to quiet near the crib and flags stray toys
- AI floor tag mode – spies jewelry or other valuables, avoids them, and alerts you
Four-Way Dirt Detection
Four cleaning modes distinguish fine dust from chunky debris. When the mop finds stubborn grime, it heads home to rinse itself, then re-mops the spot.
