Not really.

Mind that there is a medical definition of the verb "to project":

Quote:
intransitive verb
: to connect by sending nerve fibers or processes <cells of the lateral geniculate body project to the back part of the cerebral cortex>

Physically sending or "mentally" sending (e.g. sending signals)?

@oristarA,
To project in this case is physically to send.

Mentally is a poorly conceived term here..
