"Narwal's successor to its edge-mopping Flow robovac is here, and it sports a refreshed design along with a new cleaning mode that can scan your floor to tag valuables that you may have dropped, like jewelry, your phone, a key, wallet, and more. When the Flow 2 detects one of these items, the robovac will maintain a distance of at least 5cm to prevent vacuuming it up."
"The robovac will also push a notification to the Narwal app containing a photo of the item and its location on a map of your home. Narwal says the Flow 2's built-in AI system allows for "unlimited" object recognition using its dual RGB cameras that capture a 136-degree field of view. It sounds pretty neat, though you unfortunately can't send the Flow 2 on a mission to find a specific item."
"The Flow 2 also introduces cleaning modes focused on your pets and children, as the robovac can provide reminders when it detects misplaced toys, while avoiding crawling mats and entering a quiet mode upon approaching your baby's crib. It can locate your pet while you're away, too, as well as detect and deep-clean the areas where your furry friend hangs out the most."
The Narwal Flow 2 is a redesigned successor to the Flow robovac with AI-enabled object recognition that scans floors to tag valuables and keeps at least 5cm distance to avoid vacuuming them. The robovac sends a photo and map location to the Narwal app and uses dual RGB cameras with a 136-degree field of view. New cleaning modes support pets and children by detecting misplaced toys, avoiding crawling mats, entering quiet mode near cribs, locating pets remotely, and deep-cleaning pet areas. Hardware upgrades include up to 30,000Pa suction, 158°F hot-water mopping, and docking stations with reusable dust bags; pricing is not yet announced, and the Flow 2 launches in April 2026.
