QR-Code with embedded logo

    g.setComposite(AlphaComposite.getInstance(AlphaComposite.SRC_OVER, 1f));

    // Write logo into combine image at position (deltaWidth / 2) and
    // (deltaHeight / 2). Background: Left/Right and Top/Bottom must be
    // the same space for the logo to be centered
    g.drawImage(logoImage, (int) Math.round(deltaWidth / 2), (int) Math.round(deltaHeight / 2), null);

    // Write combined image as PNG to OutputStream

    LOG.error("WriterException occured", e);
} catch (IOException e) {

// Do something with the OutputStream

You can check out this small library I wrote on top of the ZXing library.

You might also want to check out the highly customizable qr-code-with-logo library for this purpose.
