FANUC's right-hand rule assigns the X-plane to which finger?

Explanation:
FANUC’s right-hand rule maps the three Cartesian axes to the three extended fingers of the right hand in a simple order: X is the index finger, Y is the middle finger, and Z is the thumb. This arrangement makes it easy to visualize the robot’s coordinate frame: point the index finger along X, the middle finger along Y, and the thumb will point along Z. It also aligns with the standard right-handed rotation rule, where curling from X toward Y corresponds to positive rotation about Z.
