A high seatback assembly can accommodate the height of an average passenger in an upright sitting posture while also providing high visibility behind the seat. The tapered geometry of the seatback is devised to allow sufficient visibility behind the seat while also providing ample structure to support a person seated in the seat. The seatback geometry can be further configured to include service modules such as integrated storage pocket, widescreen entertainment unit (display), etc. Additionally, the resulting gap between neighboring seats improves visibility and prevents claustrophobia in high-density seating configurations, such as on airplanes, buses, boats, or other vehicles.
