Abstract
A brake control device as an example of the present disclosure includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire an output of a sensor that detects information indicating a ground contact state of a drive wheel of a vehicle; and a control unit configured to, when an acceleration operation for causing the vehicle to accelerate is performed on the vehicle stopped due to a parking brake force generated by an electric parking brake, identify the ground contact state of the drive wheel based on the output of the sensor acquired by the acquisition unit, and control the electric parking brake to release the parking brake force by a control method that differs depending on the identified ground contact state.
