Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Movano Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the proposed offering and sale by the Company of up to 4,870,600 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) (which includes up to 635,296 shares that are subject to the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares to cover over-allotments, if any) (the “Shares”), pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-264116) initially filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on April 4, 2022 and declared effective by the Commission on May 25, 2022, the related base prospectus dated May 25, 2022 (the “Base Prospectus”), and the prospectus supplement dated November 14, 2023 (together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”). This opinion is being furnished to you in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

You have requested our opinion as to the matters set forth below in connection with the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the offering of the Shares thereunder. For purposes of rendering this opinion, we have examined: (i) the Registration Statement; (ii) the Prospectus; (iii) the Underwriting Agreement; (iv) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date, and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, as amended to date; and (v) the resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) and the Pricing Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Authorizing Resolutions”) approving the Registration Statement, Prospectus and the issuance of the Shares pursuant to that certain Underwriting Agreement dated on or about the date hereof (the “Underwriting Agreement”). We have also made such other investigation as we have deemed appropriate. We have examined and relied upon certificates of public officials and, as to certain matters of fact that are material to our opinion, we have also relied on a certificate of an officer of the Company. In rendering our opinion, we have also made assumptions that are customary in opinion letters of this kind. We have not verified any of those assumptions.
