The device uses two 1080p RGB cameras with a 136-degree field of view to map out the area and recognize different kinds of objects using AI models.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Narwal said that through this tech stack, the vacuum cleaner has the ability to identify an unlimited number of objects. The device first tries to identify an object locally, but in case there are no matches, it sends the data to the cloud for further processing. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"383\" width=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?w=680\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3080177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg 4096w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=150,84 150w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=768,432 768w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=680,383 680w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=1200,675 1200w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=1280,720 1280w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=430,242 430w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=720,405 720w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=900,506 900w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=800,450 800w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=1536,864 1536w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=2048,1152 2048w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=668,375 668w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=1097,617 1097w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=708,398 708w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/009.jpeg?resize=50,28 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span class=\"wp-element-caption__text\">Image Credits: Narwal<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Flow 2 has three key modes called pet care mode, baby care mode, and AI floor tag mode. With pet care mode, you can define zones where pets usually rest or hang out to clean them. Plus, it can monitor pets and also check in on your pets via two-way audio (there is no guarantee that they would listen to you, though). In the baby care mode, the vacuum switches to quiet mode near the crib and notifies you of misplaced toys. In the AI floor tag mode, the vacuum recognizes valuable items like jewelry, avoids them, and alerts you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Narwal said that its newest vacuum cleaner has four cleaning modes that can identify different types of dirt. The device can also return to its base to wash the mop and then re-mop a certain area if it is dirty. The company noted that the Flow 2\u2019s design allows for a higher hot water washing temperature for better cleaning.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"680\" width=\"318\" src=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?w=318\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3080178\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg 4136w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=70,150 70w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=140,300 140w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=768,1644 768w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=318,680 318w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=560,1200 560w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=598,1280 598w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=201,430 201w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=336,720 336w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=420,900 420w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=374,800 374w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=717,1536 717w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=956,2048 956w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=312,668 312w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=175,375 175w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=288,617 288w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=248,531 248w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/001.jpeg?resize=23,50 23w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 318px) 100vw, 318px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span class=\"wp-element-caption__text\">Image Credits: Narwal<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along with the Flow 2, the company also showed off a handheld vacuum called the U50 that weighs 1.41kg (3.1 lbs) and has UV-C sterilization along with heat treatment for allergen removal.
