The Centre for Process and Innovation (CPI), a UK company, is developing the technology -- and they say it could be on the market in as little as ten years.
With it, every passenger is offered the same view.

CPI wants to replace airplane windows with floor-to-ceiling, High-definition screens that show a panoramic view that's captured by cameras outside the aircraft.
If floating in mid-air isn't your thing, there's no need to worry: The planes will be equipped with a menu of pre-recorded images, and passengers can change them at will.
And if floor-to-ceiling screens aren't enough to keep flyers occupied, the back of the head rests will be fitted with screens that can be used to watch movies or order in-flight services.
According to CPI, the light-weight screens free up more space and save on fuel costs.
