This paper has put forward a decimal system based on binary system for representing figures of barcode image. Different with traditional distance of similar line unitary method, this paper invents the unitary decimalize method for EAN-13 image identification. Counting and sorting the times of the number that appears when scan the image to calculate the width of unit bar not use the averaging method, which has the same identification effect but more simple and effective. At last make the corresponding program to verify the method, the result shows this method performs well. It is not only suitable to the horizontal positive-going or reversed-going barcode image but also to the oblique barcode image.
