That summary is a bit generic, but you're probably looking for Intents. The example they are talking about is probably describing a PICK intent with a mime-type of "image/*". On most Android devices, this would launch the Camera app, let the user pick a photo, and return the picked photo to you. (So you don't need to write a photo-picker yourself.)
