    Check the above link given by Scott, however you can also refer this:

    Managing Assets with the Touch-Optimized UI

    check the functionality of Uploading Assets. you will get to know about the concept.

    The Grainte API does not support this widget OOTB. However - you can build it.

    Create a custom Sling Resource Type using a JQuery Plug-in that will have a drop zone on it or button and then perform a AJAX call that uploads a file to a Sling Servlet that will upload the file to the AEM DAM using Asset Manager API.

    Combine these 2 articles -

    Scott's Digital Community: Uploading files to Adobe Experience Manager DAM using AssetManager API

    Scott's Digital Community: Creating a custom Experience Manager sling:resourceType for Touch UI

    That is your solution...

      Yes - you can read that link provided by Prince. However - it will give you some background. TO get a field in a component dialog to upload an Asset to the DAM - you will need to build a custom Sling Resource type - like how we built the Color Picker. However - instead of using Color Picker - use upload logic to a Sling Servlet - similiar to the other article that i posted.
