A controllable brace assembly includes a thigh brace having a thigh gyroscope attached thereto and a shank brace having a shank gyroscope and a shank accelerometer attached thereto. A controllable knee lock couples the thigh brace to the shank brace. The knee lock has an encoder attached thereto. At least one pressure sensor is adapted to be attached to a shoe. A controller is configured to receive signals from the thigh gyroscope, the shank gyroscope, the encoder, the shank accelerometer, and the at least one pressure sensor. The controller transmits a first signal set to engage or disengage the controllable knee lock based on the received signals. A method of controlling the brace is also disclosed.
