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.)
