Hyper redundant robotis such robotwith degreesof freedom far more than itsminimum number of degrees of freedom needed to complete a task.The inverse solution of the hyper-redundant robot is obtained by using the method of backbone curve and the formula for the range of the initial configuration parameter is given firstly.Inverse solution is optimized by using quantum genetic algorithm and adjusting the initial configuration parameters

so that the distance of joint motion is minimum.The validity of the approach is demonstrated with an example of a planar 10-bar hyper-redundant robotic mechanism.
