As title says. Sensor updates if no browser looks at that dashboard, and the other way around.

Browser Mod will let you know what page is being viewed. It's not a sensor card, but just the JS on Browser Mod feeding back data to HA.

Depending on what you're trying to do, @stray sluice was able to incorporate some Javascript voodoo into his LCARS-themed dashboard. The button can "see" the path being viewed and "light up" if the appropriate page was being shown.

This changes a background color. I need it then to trigger a sensor/boolean helper switch to turn on/off.

Can you explain a little more what you are trying to do? Do you need to know which page is being displayed in the browser currently?

home assistant sometimes crashes on a device with relative old hardware. i want to know when it does, so i can issue a restart command.
if i have a card that can show a home assistant sensor if its currently being watched or not, then if the app crashes, it would report its not being looked at anymore, i know thats due to a crash then, and issue the command to restart the app.

Does the tablet offer other entities that can be monitored that would frequently change such as battery level or wifi signal? Maybe a two-part automation could be used. Maybe a timer entity could be used. When your tablet entity updates the monitored entity, the timer gets reset. If the timer elapses because the entity hasn't updated, in say, 10 minutes, something happens after that such as a notification.
