No, this isn't true.

The idea was very wide-spread before and in the early years of the Dinosaur Renaissance because of the idea that dinosaurs were simply big dumb lizards. However, we know know that T. rexhad very large, very powerful eyes. As a predator, it would need them not only to see and hunt, but also possibly for communication. This can also be deduced from their closest living relatives. Birds and crocodiles all have very sharp vision, some of which can even see a larger range of colors than humans can.

Even if their eyesight failed them, scans of the tyrannosaurs' cerebral cavity (where the brain would have been stored in life) showed it to have sensitive ears and one of the largest olfactory (smell-processing) centers in the animal kingdom. This was largely ignored in the film "Jurassic Park", but this is most likely due to the fact that the monsters there were really large frogs genetically tinkered with to look more like dinosaurs.

Long story short: if you are simply in the same room as a hungry T. rex, it has all of the resources necessary to locate you and hunt you to the death.
