Abstract
A brake controller is configured to control a brake device. The brake device applies a braking force to each of wheels by moving a pad toward a rotor provided for each of the wheels and pressing the pad against the rotor. The brake controller includes: a pressing force detection section configured to detect a pressing force information corresponding to a pressing force by which the pad is pressed against the rotor during braking; a stroke detection section configured to detect a stroke information corresponding to a stroke amount of the pad toward the rotor during braking, wherein the brake controller distributes the braking force to each of the wheels such that the pressing force is in a range other than a predetermined range, and sets the predetermined range based on the pressing force information and the stroke information.
