Are there an handler or a broadcast that can start the service when the app is changed in the foreground?

I have a service that runs in the background.

I want this service to see which app the user has in the foreground.

I can do it with the service is running every second and checks which app is in the foreground this will kill the battery.

Are there an handler or a broadcast that can start the service when the app is changed in the foreground?

I can see that the activitymanager writes to the logcat(in eclipse) when I change apps.
