Abstract
Disclosed herein are an electronic parking brake system and a method of controlling the same. The electronic parking brake system includes a wheel speed sensor which senses a movement of a vehicle; a vertical acceleration sensor which measures a vertical acceleration value; an electronic control unit (ECU) which determines whether the vehicle is rolling based on the movement of the vehicle and the vertical acceleration value; and a parking brake which brakes the vehicle based on the determination of whether the vehicle is rolling by the ECU.
