Abstract: The present invention relates to an explainable multi-modal artificial intelligence framework for autonomous vehicle perception and control. The framework comprises a data acquisition module configured to collect environmental information from cameras, radar sensors, LiDAR devices, ultrasonic sensors, positioning systems, digital maps, infotainment systems, and vehicle-to-everything communication networks. A sensor fusion platform integrates the acquired information into a unified environmental representation and utilizes artificial intelligence models to identify objects, road conditions, environmental risks, and operational scenarios. An explainability module generates interpretable reasoning outputs identifying factors contributing to autonomous vehicle decisions. An ethical decision engine evaluates proposed actions according to predefined safety, fairness, and regulatory criteria before execution. Approved actions are transmitted to a vehicle control system for real- time operation. By integrating multi-modal perception, explainable artificial intelligence, ethical validation, and autonomous control within a unified architecture, the invention improves transparency, accountability, safety, trustworthiness, and operational reliability of autonomous vehicle systems.
