cv.jit.moments WHAT?

I've been trying to figure out how to go about doing some shape recognition, which brought me across the cv.jit.moments object. I've been trying to understand what it does, but the help patch does not explain it to me very well.. Can anyone tell me what a "moment" is or what this does?

Thank you :)

cool thanks.. didnt quite get that though to be honest.. do you know of any other existing max objects that can be used as image descriptors? (something like chain code/shape number, or polygonal approximation, etc) or can you only use moments?

thanks so much for your help ^_^
