 * `#define SPLIT_HAND_PIN B7`
   * For using high/low pin to determine handedness, low = right hand, high = left hand. Replace `B7` with the pin you are using. This is optional, and if you leave `SPLIT_HAND_PIN` undefined, then you can still use the EE_HANDS method or MASTER_LEFT / MASTER_RIGHT defines like the stock Let's Split uses.

+* `#define SPLIT_HAND_MATRIX_GRID <out_pin>,<in_pin>`
+  * The handedness is determined by using the intersection of the keyswitches in the key matrix, which does not exist. Normally, when this intersection is shorted (level low), it is considered left. If you define `#define SPLIT_HAND_MATRIX_GRID_LOW_IS_RIGHT`, it is determined to be right when the level is low.

   * Reads the handedness value stored in the EEPROM after `eeprom-lefthand.eep`/`eeprom-righthand.eep` has been flashed to their respective halves.
 
 * `#define MASTER_RIGHT`

 This will read the specified pin. If it's high, then the controller assumes it is the left hand, and if it's low, it's assumed to be the right side. 
 
+#### Handedness by Matrix Pin
+
+You can configure the firmware to read key matrix pins on the controller to determine handedness.  To do this, add the following to your `config.h` file:
+
+```c
+#define SPLIT_HAND_MATRIX_GRID D0, F1
+```
+
+The first pin is the output pin and the second is the input pin.
+
+Some keyboards have unused intersections in the key matrix. This setting uses one of these unused intersections to determine the handness.
+
+Normally, when a diode is connected to an intersection, it is judged to be left. If you add the following definition, it will be judged to be right.
+
+```c
+#define SPLIT_HAND_MATRIX_GRID_LOW_IS_RIGHT
+```
+
 #### Handedness by EEPROM
 
 This method sets the keyboard's handedness by setting a flag in the persistent storage (`EEPROM`).  This is checked when the controller first starts up, and determines what half the keyboard is, and how to orient the keyboard layout.
